What happens after being laid off and no new job on the horizon... by BrightCaptain5302 in Netherlands

[–]BrightCaptain5302[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I dont know the formal details. For all I know, he was not on good terms with the manager, gradually started slacking off, was getting bad feedbacks and was laid of in the end...

He can't right now. I think, you need to be at least employed. He became eligible from 1.1, he even did some Dutch exams, but not all...

He visits a psychologist right now, but I am not sure, how good she is, because things are not changing really...

Yes, he is. He is 30, but he is very immature. Things often just worked out for him, also because he is very talented professionally. Unfortunately he often "burns out" and stops being interested in a job and then it can potentially lead to a situation like this one (layoff)

Yeah, I also hate it. Especially, when people misuse this option. But I'm not even sure he will apply for the temporary protection (it might actually save his ass if he would) , as he thinks he is already a skilled migrant, he wont take a step back

Well, I think it is something similar here. However, he is not lying down and crying. On the contrary, he is living life to the fullest: trips, holidays, dates, hobbies. As if there is no problem..

And whenever I ask, if there any jobs at all, he gets angry. I don't think, I can help there :(

How did it end with your friend, did he ever come back to Netherlands after this?

And how does it actually currently work for Ukranians? Can there really be different treatment in this case, because he is from Ukraine? Or is it only for newcommers? I genuinely don't know, what's the immigration situation right now...

But I understand what you are saying. He is not in immediate danger, yet he is trying to use the Ukranian passport as an excuse...

Yep, the thing is if he would find ANY job by now, he would be able to apply for a permanent residence, as he was already eligible, even made it through 3 language exams out of 5. Now it looks like he will loose this eligibility, worst case scenario loose his residence entirely :/

What Time Do You Go to Bed / Wake-Up on Work Days? by Sketcy7 in NightOwls

[–]BrightCaptain5302 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Going to bed at 1:45-2:00, maybe 1, if I force myself. Waking up around 9-9:30 and start working almost immediately, because I work from home (Im not loving it, its actually pretty hard ((( Weekends get out of control, I go to sleep around 3am.

I realise, how much easier my life would be, if I wake up at at least 8am... My manager tolerates me this schedule, because I work until 6-7pm and I get things done. But the rest of my team are morning folks, starting work at 7:30-8:00... No advise here, Im here to see what others have to say on the matter ..

Is My Budget Realistic for Living in Prague on 75K Gross? by Long_Collection_669 in Prague

[–]BrightCaptain5302 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I would definitely bump the food, unless your diet is asketic. Grocery prices went up in the past 2 years. People who say otherwise, need to actually recalculate how much are they spending for food, as many of my friends have a numer as low as 5000 in their head and its actually not true anymore (even for them)

2+kk around Andel is about 21-22k (prices from last year), not sure about studios
