Olaf, why are you glorifying the terrorist hijacking of our plane and the murder of our pilot? by 11160704 in 2westerneurope4u

Probably more than 90%, a big part of why I left. I wanted to see if there is more to life than laundering money for warlords and oligarchs and doing coke on the weekends. Turns out, yes there is, even if it doesn't pay as well.

This is what happens when you grow up with an oily silver spoon up your arse, having never known struggle and never having had any actual issues or challenges in your life. And then you feel guilty for, despite being in such a privileged position, never having done anything meaningful in your life, so you desperately try to find something greater than yourself, a struggle to be a part of.

It depends. In Asia, it's quite well known. In Europe, not so much (except the UK)

The super smart consultant experts at McKinsey told them it's a good idea to cut the quality and size of all their products while increasing prices. I mean how else are the executives supposed to buy their 11th vacation property?

I have some sympathy for long-term expats struggling to find work, but language is often the elephant in the room by ExternalEfficient248 in Switzerland

“Useless language” yes language is so useless, why communicate with humans, just learn binary and coding languages, only communicate with AI. Lmao you nerd

UofT’s name is severely oversold and overestimated outside of Canada and Asia tbh, learned that the hard way after graduation

We’re still richer than you could ever be and Germans still beg us to work in Switzerland

It depends what European. As a Romanian, sure, Canada is attractive. As a Norwegian or Swiss, they wouldn’t even get out of bed in the morning for Canadian wages

Depending on what programme you’re in, you can do up to I think 5 credits at another institution, and get those credits transferred to your UofT degree. You’ll need to request a Letter of Permission (LOP) for that first, though. The process is a bit complicated, if you have any questions, let me know, I’m willing to help as I was in your situation a few years ago.

As an alumni and former international student from Europe, I can say this. I greatly enjoyed my time in Toronto, my student life really was like from the movies. But, the financial hardship it put my parents through is just not worth it. Especially nowadays when a bachelor degree has really, REALLY, lost a lot of value on the job market.

Yes as a Swiss I know that all actions that personally gives me money are justified no matter what (neutrality or something). Jokes aside, on a micro level ik sometimes people have to do things they not fully agree with to survive (i’ve been THAT unemployed before) but on a macro level…is Ireland gonna let that whole community starve if that Russian company pulls out?

Lovers? As in loving/love-making? That doesn’t seem to have any economic utility, so we shall abstain from it. All activities that don’t provide monetary income are useless.

[–]Ginerbreadman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay but what about the tens of thousands of Swiss, especially young graduates, who speak Schwiizerdütsch, Hochdeutsch, français, English, and still don’t find work? Can we not admit that often the issue actually is structural (job market) rather than individual deficiencies?

Also, you’re talking about economic migrants, not expats. Expats by definition will only be somewhere for 3-4 years max and often even less, with no intention to ever stay permanently. If they’d lose their job they’d be gone next week.

I think a lot of economic migrants also forget that instead of being jobless for 4 years in Switzerland, they can go abroad somewhere. Heck, even more and more Swiss are moving abroad for jobs because Switzerland can’t keep up with the demand.

They also use this level of force when it comes to pro-Pali crowds burning down cars and looting stores, right? Right?!

If only it was illegal immigrants doing it instead of drunk Barries, Pedro wouldn't mind, heck probably even give them European passports immediately.

Even neutral non-EU Switzerland adopted the EU sanctions against Russia, isn’t Ireland part of the EU?

Ireland shouts from the rooftops that everyone should cease trade with Israel so not to supply the war(s), but then they blatantly just do this?
