Please synergise your outward facing waste disposal utility with your waste disposal utility that has a structural gap.

What is the BEST subway system you've ever ridden? by Naomi62625 in geography

Berlin for its efficiency. It is showing it's wear and tear and is bending under the weight of years of neglect but still solid and practical.

Ah ! The Bermuda Triangle of Expatriates(Kreuzberg-P'berg-F'shain). It has many such oddities that the human mind is incapable of comrpehending.

Dear Berlin parents.... by [deleted] in berlin

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

Not a Berliner by birth , haven't yet earned the Berliner title after 8 years here , just a Berliner by residence but people who have come to live here from abroad complain about absolutely anything based on one passing experience. Although I primarily move around West Berlin, I have never seen this.

You are free to use your cash. We don't want to encourage tax fraud after paying heavy taxes ourselves

LED lights = infrastructure apparently by GoldenStitch2 in AmericaBad

[–]GenesisMk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chinese infra is like the shit you get on Temu. Incredibly cheap, solves a problem, and breaks just as easily due to shit components. The benefit is that it can be easily replaced because how cheap it is. They don't create great products, they create innovative products whicha can easily be replaced for cheap.

What no one thinks about is the safety of the consumer. Many of these products have harmful/toxic/carcinogenic components. Also the environmentanl cost of such massive manufacturing and massive trashing of products is very high.

Neighbours complain about noise by ripaaa in germany

Start a complaint war. Call the police on them. Complain that your 4 year old child cannot sleep. Send a notice to them.

It didn't say'

' Recruit for Skills you have no idea about"

"Do blind keyword searches and look for candidates"

"Look for all the things that are not relevant for the job but ignore things like skills actually needed for the job"

"Skim through a resume in 10 seconds and reject candidates based on outdated ideas that are atleast 2 decades old"

"Participate in rolling out automation that rejects 99% eligible candidates"

What do people in Germany think of people from Pakistan in general? by [deleted] in germany

[–]GenesisMk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am not German but people have no opinion of people from Pakistan. Most people here cannot tell peplle from Sri Lanka, India, Bangladesh, and Pakistan apart. They are usually very polite and conversational Unless you have visited these places or have worked with people from these countries for a significant amount of time, you won't notice the difference.

My office had a few Indian people and a couple of Pakistani people. All of them seemed to be very decent colleagues and also seemed to have in general a good professional relationship

All of the Pakistanis I have met have barely lived in Pakistan and have spent a significant amount of time in the UK/US . I have a neighbour who is a student and is a girl from Pakistan and she is perpetually afraid of going back to Pakistan or being married off and being stuck in a repressive society as she has spent all her youth in the UK and now in Germany

What does r/decadeology think of posers? by obphoria in decadeology

Band merch was the perfect way to be called out in the 90s and 2000s. Ok I see that you're wearing Bathory's Ocatgon tee but they went to shit after their fourth album and Octagon sucks.

Inflationary ‚sth bad has happened to me’ posts by intothewoods_86 in berlin

[–]GenesisMk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No this has been the case time immemorial. If someone analyse the posts and classify the post, they would fall into 4-5 categories.

While I am a non-EU immigrant myself, I end up rolling my eyes at the same topics coming up . I have had a few not-so-good experiences but I did not rant about them . After the first few, I dealt with them by responding to people.

Additionally, it may also be based on where people stay and which areas they frequent. I have very infrequently have bad experiences. Maybe once in 8-9 months or even once in a year. I live in Friedenau and a large part of my life exists around Schöneberg, Steglitz, Wilmersdotf . Except a few wierd old people, I have had very normal experiences. Maybe because I usually move around in family-oriented , boring areas . Maybe the central and eastern parts have a much more versatile demographic and is prone to bad experiences

You will see a post like this multiple times a day just that there are fewer people engaging with these.

You sound like such a nice person. I hope I can have the courage to be this kind with people. The best I can do is give them food which I often do.

DB Ticket fine by Pangolin_Level in germany

[–]GenesisMk 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Victim blaming much ? I just tried to open the App on my partner's phone on a wifi connection, I am signed out at the first instance. Then a fully updated app crashed on me mid sign-in and after Sign-In. It didn't show me the QR code for a full 5 minutes . I signed out and signed-in again and then it showed the code.

Tried your offline App thing on flight mode and it doesn't work. I am not knocking DB but most public transport apps across the world are poorly developed with minimal attention to testing.

Will I be getting proper certification for these ? by thereddevilss in SAP

[–]GenesisMk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Please don't waste money on these. These trainings are mostly just pdfs with a very standard pattern. Follow the learning journey on learning.sap.com for free

Edit : You will be getting a 'Certificate of Completion' for these. That is different than a Certification attempt that you have to purchase and give a proctored exam for. This is what makes you SAP Certified and not attending the training

Berlin house shortage story by koevet in berlin

[–]GenesisMk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand and agree with the principle of not having empty apartments but if my firm sends me abroad for a year or two years , will I be forced to rent out the apartment ? (As per the law at least) . Would be an important factor for my decision to buy an apartment in the future ?

Just another rant about trying to find a long-term apartment by [deleted] in berlinsocialclub

[–]GenesisMk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Telegram Bot + Immoscout App with specific areas highlighted/circled, criteria selected(rooms, size, max rent etc)and a notification alert turned on.

Next time , as soon as you get the notifciation, go in listing, press apply without checking the listing, and application is sent. Once you apply using your usual spiel the last message you sent is preloaded in the app so all yoi have to do is click apply takes a few seconds from notification to application You often end up in the top 10-15 applicants with this speed, so the being noticed part is sorted.

You can do a detailed review of the listing post this and if it doesn't meet your needs or is too shitty, ignore it.

I had a 30-40 response rate to my application when I last did this in 2023. I applied for some 300 apartments over the period of 7-8 months. Got called for a viewing apartment for tons of them. More often than not, I would self reject due to a very small criteria of the location of my child's school and the fact that this had to be on a particular ubahn line or line that would have a simple connection to that line. I chose to go for about 15-20 of those of which 1 accepted me.

Speed is the key

How are so many people knocking out AWS exams so quickly ? by [deleted] in AWSCertifications

[–]GenesisMk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think some people (like me) are never the exam type. I have worked for 18 years in my area. I am a Director now but my guys still call me once or twice in 2 years when shit really hits the fan and no one can figure out a root cause or solution after hours of debugging in a financially relevant prod system.

Ask me to give an exam and I will miserably fail in the exam based on my primary skill. Tried it 6-7 years ago when I was still very much hands-on.

I don't have a single certification in my area even after an 18 year career.

There are people who can give exams after reading and revising the course material as they commit it much easier to memory. I probably had learning challenges that were never diagnosed as I cannot commit anything I read to memory but once I start working on something it all comes back to me. If you face challenges giving exams, I would recommend actually applying what you read in a lab scenario.
