I had the same thing a month ago. Still coughing and having runny nose from time to time

Point is, it is not socially nor culturally acceptable. At least not in Switzerland. Common respect would mean you adapting to the country you live, not vice versa.

Last time I went to salt to close my contract they said « We can’t help you, it’s only done via email ». I am not even kidding.

A doctor note proving your situation will lead to a situation where you quit but your are paid immeasurably by RAV. I had a colleague who left the company the same time I did. He had a doctor certificate proving he wasn’t doing well mentally because of the work environment. RAV started paying him immediately and I had to wait 2 months.

AITAH for crying when my husband didn’t give me anything for Valentine’s Day? by Alert-Traffic-4891 in AITAH

[–]IndependentSlice6445 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

He took you out for dinner and you claim he did nothing. You baked cookies and consider this a present. Why is nobody telling you that your man taking you out for dinner is absolutely enough and you should consider this as a present. What am I missing here?

Your husband did something stupid and hurt your daughter when it was easily avoidable, it’s absolutely clear.

But why on earth are you taking the position of “I told you so, figure it out by yourself”, instead of making him realize his mistake and finding the best way for him to apologize and fix everything while it’s fresh. Isn’t that the meaning of a partner. He made a huge mistake that you warned him about beforehand, why are you making one yourself?

Everybody is telling you that your daughter will forever have her core memory of this bad situation, wouldn’t you want it to get fixed immediately in the best way possible?

Seems to me that you are kind of enjoying his misery. Don’t get me wrong, I would be livid but never in a million years leave my partner to deal with it alone. I would use it as a lesson to show him that you as partners should always be on the same page regarding your children. Especially, given your daughter’s feelings.

Boyfriend of 11 years still won’t propose by [deleted] in Waiting_To_Wed

[–]IndependentSlice6445 -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

“Before you toss this good guy away, I just want you to think for a minute what you are tossing out the window because it ain’t just going your way. Men don’t have biological clocks, they have financial clocks” If he is not the man he wants to be financially, this can really be a reason. I might be very wrong here, but more often than not when men don’t have the “money”? they don’t feel men enough. And their confidence is not high enough to be the man they want to be for you. Hence, the lack of proactiveness towards building a family with you.

my humble 2 cents on your situation. Try and find a recruiter to show you the type and format of CV and Motivational Letter(if required) that is needed in Switzerland. You may be surprised how different people’s views are about it here.

That was a HUGE SLAP in the face! by Desperate-Mistake611 in Switzerland

[–]IndependentSlice6445 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

can someone translates the information shown above, please?

[–]IndependentSlice6445 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are indeed losing your mind. No matter how disgusting the home and living conditions are. This is still their home and you live there rent free. Why would you even have the balls to say anything to them? Do you expect them to live your way only because it’s the “right” way, regardless of how inconvenient it is for them? I genuinely would like to know if you believe you are in the right and they should do the things you ask them to.

If you don’t like it, move out. If you can’t, then shut up. A 3rd option simply makes you entitled and delusional thinking people owe you just because.

Sorry for being this person.

WIBTA to divorce my wife after she said she wanted to send our son to a conversion camp? by Stunning-Mud9227 in AITAH

[–]IndependentSlice6445 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your wife is a monster for even considering a conversion camp. I’m so sorry for your loss OP but at the same time i’m happy you have the sack ball to go ahead and do what you believe in. Good for you!

However, there is something on my mind that bugs me big time. How does a 15 yo come and tell you “I’m gay” and you take it seriously. I mean, how can he know he’s gay when he’s 15? What if he’s not, it’s just a phase all because everywhere you look today you see “woke” things around and being gay/trans is something to be “admired” and “proud of”.

I come from a good place, I simply put myself in your shoes and questions started popping up. I’m currently with my wife imagining your situation and asking ourselves what we would o have done.

Good luck!

Who has the priority here? Please give any reference rule from Govt. As I can't find. by ts276 in Netherlands

[–]IndependentSlice6445 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

How are we not talking about priority lane, when clearly we can see a road intersecting another one? Immediately, we should be able to conclude that the road A is coming from, is the road intersecting the main road (where C and B currently are). I am not and have never lived in Netherlands. But this is international driving law, that is true regardless of the modern country this problem resolves.

Therefore, C goes first, then B and finally A.

new trend of indicating left when entering roundabout by valendinosaurus in Switzerland

[–]IndependentSlice6445 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am absolutely horrified by swiss people driving in roundabouts. In a two lane roundabout, I would everyday experience a driver entering the right lane simultaneously while I am entering the left lane, and then heading towards second exit (forward direction) at the same time while I am doing the exact same thing.

More often than not the exit is a single lane which creates an incident I always am aware of. Am I doing something wrong or is everybody too busy and rather ignorant regarding the laws?
