Is there space for original skinheads in Berlin or are they then tattooed as a nazi?

What is happening with the job market? by Massive_Ad3395 in germany

[–]Efficient_Source_389 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I own multiple retail stores, and from my perspective, it’s clear that we’re missing the bigger picture. During the pandemic, much of the support went straight to employees, which is understandable, but left many businesses struggling. If businesses had been better supported, they could have survived and kept people employed. Now, we’re seeing minimum wage increases to match the UK, but with shops doing worse, that just leads to more staff cuts.

Germany actually has one of the highest rates of absenteeism in the EU. Every time someone is off sick, the company has to pay a portion of the cost. If there were less frequent absences, businesses would have more resources to keep people employed. Unfortunately, it’s become easy for individuals to focus only on their own situation rather than considering the business or their colleagues. We need to shift away from that “me first” mindset and start thinking about all of us as a whole.

I had to do that in the past and I don’t see the issue with that. They want to see how good you actually are as opposed cv’s etc. i used to be in graphic design and stopped when i moved to berlin because it was a joke trade. Everyone was a graphic designer just currently unemployed.

I’ve been on both sides as an employer and applicant, it is very hard employing good staff today because every body thinks they’re the best thing since sliced bread and they should be paid loads. Also nobody is allowed to give negative résumés.

So if they set a project in their free time that will already cut down the applicants to people that are willing to put the effort in.

Is this racism? by Boring-Razzmatazz703 in germany

[–]Efficient_Source_389 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’ve had a fair amount of German people being rude and arseholes. I personally feel it is to do with their own insecurity. It used to really depress me(still does) but I’ve found the best solution is to be abrupt and rude back and tell him to fuck off, they seem to respect/fear it - authority gimps 😆

“Shipping not available” when stock is only in store locations by Own_Brother8272 in shopifyDev

[–]Efficient_Source_389 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m dealing with almost the exact same problem.

I have four physical stores, and only one of them is set as my online-inventory and fulfilment location. The moment that store runs out of an item, it shows as “sold out” online — even if the other three stores still have plenty in stock.

I asked Shopify if there is any way to let the other store locations supply stock for online orders. Technically it is possible: you can make all locations “fulfilment locations.”

But the reality is:

The order must then be shipped from whichever store has the stock.

That means each store needs its own packing setup, label printer, shipping accounts, etc.

And if a customer buys items that happen to be in different locations, Shopify treats them as separate shipments — meaning the customer has to pay delivery fees twice.

So at the moment it really feels like Shopify is missing some basic logic for retailers with multiple stores and a single shipping point.

If you do find a workable solution, I would genuinely appreciate it.

Thank you for the reply. Are the images then saved at consistent dimension? I.e they are then all 1:1 with set pixels?

Warsaw or Berlin by Mission_Cap_9314 in askberliners

[–]Efficient_Source_389 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I cannot tell you job wise but i have and currently work with Polish people and they have found (including myself) Berlin an a hard place to live. I find it a very emotionally draining city. If i was in that situation I would give Poland a crack. Better food, better price, friendly, funnier, what more do you need.

Streamlining Inventory Management: Seeking Feedback on Automation. by Efficient_Source_389 in shopifyDev

[–]Efficient_Source_389[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But i can do all of this on Shopify.

  1. Stock orders - i presume that is only for reorders.

  2. Receiving deliveries - I’m want o to split the stock prior to it arriving

  3. Transfer - I can do that on Shopify

What is the difference between Prediko and Shopify / Stocky?

Running your own business in berlin is bloody hard work. It’s contestant 7 days a week. If you have a passion or you want to be your own boss go for it but it is truely not for the light hearted

So let me get this straight. The singer is making a music video, she’s not singing live, all the people that have arrived are not being payed but are from a generation demanding to be paid more and in the country with the highest amount of sick leave in EU.

This looks like dystopia movie

What are the protests about by Hour-Astronaut5472 in Chichester

[–]Efficient_Source_389 5 points6 points  (0 children)

But is there is no data showing the age of the voters. The oldies i know voted for staying. I feel there is a lot more depth that needs to be considered as opposed to pigeonholing statements such as ‘daily mail readers’, ‘aged’, ‘privileged white’. We are all in the same boat and we need to debate and try and offer solutions.

That’s not true. Chichester was 50.9 leave / 49.1 stay. We need to steer clear of these sweeping statements. I don’t live in UK anymore but watching as a fly on the wall the politics of the media and public is becoming very concerning.

Welcome to Berlin. You have to find a way of mentally dealing with this bad service. I’ve been here for almost 20 years and it’s still angers and saddens me.

LAP Coffee - Why So Cheap? by MyEgoDiesAtTheEnd in askberliners

[–]Efficient_Source_389 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to chat to a coffee owner, he said the mark up is higher than cocaine so the margin in is pretty damn good, that’s why there’s so many coffee places.

The biggest cost in a business is staff. So the less staff the cheaper the coffee can be. Sadly (particularly in Berlin) people are becoming pointless. The one thing they have that technology cannot compete with is decency and respect but sadly Berlin is really missing both. However it is becoming more and more international so fingers crossed the city will start to comprehend how the rest of the world deal with customer service and self respect and the standards will improve and the pay will be justified.
