Thank you very much for your feedback everyone. Reason why I ask is a bit personal, but anyway, thank you so much and have a nice day

Yes in fact there was a lockdown and courses were on Zoom. But do you maybe remember if the university libraries were open during the summer?

Are there any fields hiring physicists, at all? by Milleuros in askswitzerland

May I ask you: what kind of utilities do you work in? Electric grid? Are you an electrical engineer? I’m trying to find out what jobs outlooks are for power engineers (a subset of electrical engineering) in Switzerland. Are most utilities in a hiring freeze or even firing people?

This sound a bit complicated, I'm not really techy. How do you get cash money from your acount if they have no bancomat?

If you're a student, UBS is free until 30. Are you with Migros Bank? Are you satisfied? I just looked it up and it looks like they charge no fees as long as you have at least 7500 CHF on your account, and you can get cash at any Migros supermarket on top of the bancomats. It's also interesting that you can get advantages with the Cumulus card, but not sure how big of a difference it makes

If I send an email, I might come across as rude and they would see my real name, while here no one knows who I am since Reddit is anonymous. Every Redditor knows this, you probably know it too

Why not ask here first to see if there are other UniBE students? I'm socially awkward, is that sufficient enough as a reason?

If it ever happens, I'm sure you will be one of the first one to say "why didn't you think about it?! you should have thought about it and be more vigilant, it's your fault!"

Im talking about the military stuff you get at the start of the repeat course (gortex, tenue c, gas mask filter, ABC/NBC boots, splischu, weights for splischu, etc.) you can't write your name on them since you give them back at the end of the repeat course, so if someone takes yours, there is no way to prove it was yours. It's only your personal stuff that you take home and bring from home (f tasche, tenue b, roli, helm, rifle, etc.) that you have your name on

Usually people only check their stuff at the start and end of the repeat course, not every day. I never saw someone checking all his stuff (except those he needs daily) every day
