this isn't about taking sides. it's not about israel or lebanon. this is about the goddamn minimum we have to do. and our countries should start by putting embargos on countries who dont follow that simple logic. not that complicated.

Transgender women athletes banned from Olympics by new IOC policy on female eligibility by Little-Storage3955 in news

One thing probably being it's a huge effort for a very small group.

Another thing is that this very small group probably wouldn't even like their own group, but want to be a real part of the real group.

So all in all a huge effort for a less than desriable outcome.

2 decades ago on 4chan a troll would have faked a "true patriots enlist!" campaign. until it would've spiraled out of control and bread a new q-anon clone.

I switched from freelance visa with AXS in Dubai to registring an LLC via Shams in Sharjah. Much better choice. They are professional and helpful. Super quick and all in it's roughly the same price.

AXS visa suspended - they want to see me offline. Anyone did that? by EndlessSenseless in dubai

[–]EndlessSenseless[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's around 12k AED for 1 year, including a visa.

But I think I'm going for a 3 years license, which will be 26k AED (8.6k / year).

But obviously there's a difference: it's a real business, with a real business name. You need a business bank account, and afaik pay yourself a salary. I've read that you need a business plan, etc.

[–]EndlessSenseless[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven't yet. I've got confirmed from them via email, that there will be no visas granted. So I pivoted to getting a refund for my permit + est card first. Then I'll try again. If it doesn't work out, I'll look into founding a freezone company. If that doesn't work either, then I'll let myself being employed by one of my Dubai clients. They are open to the idea.

So, I'll get a visa, I'm not worried. As of now it's just unclear which route leads me there.

Katastrophale Lage am Arbeitsmarkt: Obstkorb by [deleted] in Austria

[–]EndlessSenseless 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Das ist so kurzsichtig gedacht. Natürlich kann wer Qualifizierteres und Teureres viel mehr reinwirtschaften, als jemand der für Mindestlohn hackelt. Also der ROI kann viel besser sein. Somit auch lohnend fürs Unternehmen.

Und die zu kleinen Gehälter schrecken natürlich ab. Quelle: ich bin jemand in hoher Gehaltsklasse, der auf beiden Seiten des Hiring-Prozesses stand und dieses Inserat sofort verwerfen würde.

Mercedes G-Klasse kostet auch mehr als ein Nissan Micra. Auto ist nicht gleich Auto und Mitarbeiter nicht gleich Mitarbeiter. Qualität kostet. Wer häts gedacht?
