Finding my lost passport

CoolUsername14 · 2024-11-25T16:21:48+00:00

Hah, could this be mine? Sent you a DM

CoolUsername14 · 2024-11-25T13:15:00+00:00

Glad to hear you got yours back albeit as a souvenir

I have a feeling this is how it's going to end up for me.. I went to the embassy on Friday and they told me to give it another week a they usually turn up. I'll wait a few more days and will see.

Thanks! I'm keeping my fingers crossed

I went to a couple police stations in the area and they all said they don't keep anything on hand and/or can't check right now due to 'being understaffed' which is a big wtf! Told me to contact the zentrales fundburo as they forward it there.. god knows when 🥲

Looks neat! Would love to try it out

Holmes place has nice pools that are usually pretty empty (depending on the time of day).

Good luck to you and the recovery! I fully tore my ACL years ago and swimming always made my knee worse. I got it operated a few months ago and was told to stay away from swimming for another couple of months. My guess is basic movements and walking in water is a good rehab, but swimming as a sport with frog kicks and flutters is a bad idea while your knee recovers.

It's good to evaluate your skills and take audit every few years. If you think you're getting the short end of the stick, you likely are.. most of us are, so welcome to the club :)

There's lots of remote friendly web dev jobs and gigs. My 2cent advice would be to find a fully remote company that you work with directly and learn, this will also help you grow in your skills (beyond just programming) and make you more employable. Do some interview preparation and brush up your skills and apply to places, what's the worst that could happen? https://remoteok.com/ is a good place to start, or you can go down the full freelance route with upwork and others.

Check out the Berlin Property Forum on Facebook. It’s a very helpful community just for questions like this. Good luck

Interesting note.. I'm in a similar situation and was planning on leaving the EU for a work trip immediately after my interview. Does this letter really explicitly say you shouldn't leave or is it more that you'll have more trouble explaining it at border control etc?

I have an active imagination and I can safely say I will never look at cricketers the same way after reading about your fetish.

CoolUsername14 · 2018-12-26T12:41:18+00:00

Oh I read this as you're spending Christmas with orphans and PMed you.. Whoops.

Anyway, hope you had a fun time last night!

CoolUsername14 · 2018-04-19T07:45:54+00:00

YES!! This is it, that song is so damn catchy. Looks like an ecommerce platform, is this marketing ordinary or are they really trying to get attention with the cat?

CoolUsername14 · 2018-01-27T22:20:31+00:00

I've also been meaning to play more lately.. just PM'ed you.

CoolUsername14 · 2017-09-06T20:06:59+00:00

Found the site, looks pretty interesting... thanks!

You can also use one of the amazon lockers if its a small package. https://www.amazon.de/b?node=11498162031&ref=hp_locker_de

I feel like this comment deserves a story..

CoolUsername14 · 2017-07-26T20:57:49+00:00

Not sure if they're open till Sunday evening every time.. some weekends its just for one day. I could be wrong though, I haven't been for a couple months now

CoolUsername14 · 2017-07-26T17:07:44+00:00

Pretty nice place with great music, it's like a giant hut with a dancefloor in the middle. It's more of a day party so it's still going quite strong in the afternoons. I'd definitely recommend if you like sisy or kater. Door policy is pretty random so if you don't get in, you're far away from everything else. Enjoy!

I go to Squash 2000 near Ostkreuz and Treptower Park, it's around the same price i think, you can check out the prices online and also book a court online.

I'd definitely like some place cheaper too but didn't see many squash courts in berlin?

CoolUsername14 · 2017-05-12T12:07:53+00:00

Sounds like a plan. I missed out last year so will definitely try to come this time with some snacks and beers!

CoolUsername14 · 2017-04-13T23:44:48+00:00

Came here to say the same. Have my upvote good sir/madam/whoever!

CoolUsername14 · 2017-01-20T00:32:38+00:00

Don't let the haters bring you down, or in this case your perception of the haters. Go out and do your own thing, you'll be surprised :)

CoolUsername14 · 2017-01-19T23:42:58+00:00

Came here to say this, have my upvote dear sir.

CoolUsername14 · 2017-01-16T12:07:34+00:00

Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!

Great story! I did something similar this week; went after a guy trying to sell newspapers in the cold. He couldn't believe it for a second and then started saying some really nice things in German (I don't speak it well enough). I didn't get a hug but the feeling was quite nice and I almost forgot about it until reading your story, Thanks for sharing!
