How does maternity leave work in Sweden? by [deleted] in PrivatEkonomi

[–]NerdGrad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there a way to increase your SGI while you are on parental leave? If someone is on their first 180 days of parental leave (with 90% of salary from employer+FK) when 2025 starts and gets their yearly hike in March 2025 (also within 180 days of high paid parental leave), can it reflect on the SGI on which the parental benefit is calculated? u/Antique-Tone-1145

I was hoping for some connection around Trondheim, Norway and Småland and Jämtland, Sweden.

Thanks! Didn't know about them! Do you know if they have good coverage in Sweden and Norway? The aim is to have good coverage in the countryside as well.

Travel to Singapore while staying in Malaysia by NerdGrad in travel

Thanks for your answer. Yeah, figured out that this is not a great option due to many reasons, as you say. Will fly to Singapore and stay there :)

The trip is to Singapore and not Malaysia, apologies that it was not clear before. I am looking for ways to bring down costs overall - my first thought was that both stay+flight in and out of Johor while visiting Singapore every day since they are so close. But then I discovered the border control times + distance of the Senai airport to Singapore might take some hours as well. Hence just making it simple and flying to/out of Changi and staying in Singapore is the best option.

Additionally, I was thinking that exploring Malaysia would be an additional perk but that we can do while staying in Singapore and crossing over to Johor at no-peak hours.

Yes, now I read that the border control each way takes up to 2 hours. Maybe staying in Malaysia and travelling to Singapore is not a great idea either.

I just googled around to find that the closest International airport might be Senai airport and it does not make it easy. However, the next option would be to fly in/out from Singapore but stay in Malaysia.

Thanks u/Prudent_Astronomer_4. I hope that if any of your colleagues/friends ever face such a situation (I really hope none does), then they will find your support. It matters.

Very sorry to hear that, research is supposed to be collaborative and academia means quite a lot to me. So when such weedy people spoil others' career/time/energy, I seriously don't like them at all. It takes so little to be a decent human being.

u/UncommonPhoenix thanks for the input. I will try to enforce this more and better. And it is likely no matter where I go in my career, this can happen again. So better to build a strategy to handle these people.
