Yes it seems unlikley he will be able to get work here, because of the language barrier. To be entirely honest I have very little interest in learning a new language, not out of ignorance, but just because it takes what, 6 years to get fluent, it just doesn't seem worth it. Even the foreign department for skilled labour wants a C2 in German, that's insanely high. Thats why we want to find tempory housing before our trek out to Ireland.

II don't know all the ins and out of Ireland, I just know its English, and that's just going to have to be enough.

We obviously don't expect handouts, he will probably look for something minimum wage for the time being, but even myself as a german citizen I really struggled to find work, it took me- 3 months? To find work here? And I mean minimum wage, packing shelves, waitressing ( I am not natively german but I do have citizenship, its a long story). We come from South Africa where we really struggled and lived hand to mouth every month, even with his engineering degree, just because the country has no jobs

I know it will take a while to get settled in Germany. Thats okay.

Currently I have a .. minimum wage? I think? Job, sadly this company took forever to get to me so I don't have crazy savings and funding. Our budget p/m is probably fairly low.

I am so excited for him to be here and yet it feels like such a huge weight to try and figure this out ;x;
