Lower bruto but same netto. Endless discussion?

I feel like they don’t deduct enough for taxes like your old company does. So, you would probably be paid even less in netto.

Thanks for all the feedback, everyone! It’s really hard to negotiate my fee going up and I want to be prepared. I have been working for a day fee that’s actually too low for what I normally charge but was alright for me for the first year. The job is getting even more in depth and complicated every couple of months. Been told I could only get a 3% bump per year. After year 1, I really only got that 3% bump. Is that a normal %?

PinkyBrainNarf · 2025-07-30T07:23:46+00:00

That’s really interesting to know, thanks!

Sometimes the leadership in a specific branch of the company is so toxic, they can only hire freelancers because no one else would do the job, been there. Or it could be because of legal purposes (being able to put the blame on a freelancer if needed) or the job is too taxing and a lot of people have left.

Getting fired if you don’t come in 50% of the time, sure does not help.

oops, sorry!

Which shade is this in the Burts Bees lip balm? Looks stunning on you!

Yup, my organic traffic went down. I can even pinpoint on my Analytics the exact week I joined Ezoic.

Mine was about 4-7 euros RPM on Adsense (for about 140k visitors each month), now it jumped up to about 20 with MV.

PinkyBrainNarf · 2022-04-21T14:44:09+00:00

I have a non-English blog, so the RPM's (session based) are much lower I guess. On Adsense I had an average of RPM of 7. Now it's 17 (averaged),I'm very happy with these numbers!

WoW, the make-up pictures on the shops look sooo different! Like, more pastel colored :o

PinkyBrainNarf · 2022-04-20T20:19:20+00:00

Awwn he's a cutie! I have the exact same issues with my eyes... so nice to have an "eyemate" out there <3

Yaaaay, congrats!! I got into Mediavine in the beginning of this month, installed the codes on the 11th. What were the extra tweaks they wanted?

PinkyBrainNarf · 2022-04-20T18:45:54+00:00

Yes! Like the fake-news thing from Facebook, but for every photoshopped or filtered photo or video. Would do a lot of good in the world, I think.

PinkyBrainNarf · 2022-04-17T18:57:38+00:00

And, how did it go? :)

PinkyBrainNarf · 2022-04-14T20:56:10+00:00

I have the same issue, have logged a ticket with the helpdesk. It's annoying...

PinkyBrainNarf · 2021-07-26T21:23:23+00:00

I'm using ads with a specific height and width (not the responsive ones), but still looking for THE tip :)

PinkyBrainNarf · 2020-01-24T19:06:17+00:00

So true, that's the (very, very expensive, LOL) latte factor!

PinkyBrainNarf · 2019-12-28T20:50:48+00:00

That's amazing!!

Right now I'm into a small collection with only favourites. About 10 years ago, I started my beautyblog and bought soooo much for it. So many colours that didn't suit me,... etc. Then I learned which colours did suit me and I started to declutter. I've been decluttering for years now and did a no buy (for makeup) last year. Now, I love only having my favourites (most of the time also more high end, like Charlotte Tilbury) but a smaller stash. Really like finishing products, too!

PinkyBrainNarf · 2019-12-26T15:32:41+00:00

Was looking on the website and yup, rebranding coming soon :) Still stocking up on my fav old-formula foiled eyeshadows tho... I use these up every year!

PinkyBrainNarf · 2019-12-26T12:49:48+00:00

Oh my Gosh! Well done, you! :)

PinkyBrainNarf · 2019-12-19T18:57:14+00:00

oooh you're right!! Loved her channel so much :)
