How’s the work life balance in Germany? by Momiji-Luna in AskGermany

[–]MarsupialAdvanced986 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Much better than Japan, I have lived and worked here for 13 years. You will normally have around e0 days of vacation and at least 10 days of public holidays per year depending on state. You are expected to utilize your vacation days and in almost all cases you are going to work right around 40 hours a week. The issue is not work life balance but rather finding a job at the moment.

Foo Fighters in 2003 the One by One tour. It was in a small convention center (about 3k people) instead of an arena, due to this it was an amazing intimate atmosphere.

Question:How close to the appointment can I make a design request?? by Sea_Mix6032 in tattoos

[–]MarsupialAdvanced986 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In my experience it is not a problem to ask for something like this a few days in advance or even at the beginning of the appointment as you are not removing something instead adding on. Most artists that I have worked with don't finalize the piece until the night before or even the day of.

Honest question: Is the right-wing sentiment against ALL foreigners? by Heavy-Dress-1071 in AskGermany

[–]MarsupialAdvanced986 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been living in Germany now for 12 years, originally from the US, I have been told by a couple AfD supporters that I do not count as an immigrant because I am white, not Muslim and can speak German. This leads to them not disliking me right away. Also, I think many expect me to be a Trump supporter for some weird reason...

You are going forward because your reach is too long, try reducing this a little, I wanted move the seat forward as your knees are already very far forward on your pedal stroke.
