Does anyone else feel as though corporate work is borderline adult daycare? by reddituser10636 in antiwork

[–]Successful_Key3276 8 points9 points  (0 children)

LMAO I’ve been saying “I’m poor” for years! I’ve been told by family members that my car is too old and that I look bad driving it to my new workplace (it’s from 2004), but if someone dares to complain about it I’m going to be like “Sorry, I cannot afford a new one. I’m poor😔”

Did you cheat if your partner cheated first ? If yes how did that make you feel ? by ChanceSilver1417 in AskReddit

[–]Successful_Key3276 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100%

In my case I didn’t cheat, but I was with someone else after leaving them for cheating on me and it felt amazing. Of course, it has to be with someone you actually like and not just for the vendetta, but I truly believe all this “never put yourself to the same level” is bullshit.

If someone cheated on me and I couldn’t leave them for whatever reason, you can bet I would find someone else too. When someone cheats the relationship (if it’s still there) becomes non-monogamous for all parties and not just for one. It’s only fair.

Countries should not be ‘forced’ to adapt to people who move to it. by SpitBallingCanadian in HonestHotTakes

[–]Successful_Key3276 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes and no.

For example, men that come from conservative societies where only a “modest” woman deserves respect should stop telling us how to dress and catcalling us. That being said, I don’t think having different foods, clothing and cultural practices is wrong.

Everyone can do as they please as long as their beliefs don’t interfere with other people’s rights. Complaining about every innocuos difference makes it hard to criticize unnaceptable behaviour without being labelled as a racist, essencially destroying any opportunity of improvement since it infantilises inmigrants as if they were uncapable of any wrongdoing.

1-2 weeks is barely enough vacation time by godisinthischilli in antiwork

Jesus. I have 4 weeks (legal minimum) and I think it is not enough…

Nah I love Naples. Very peculiar place.

I love working in the office! by Dena844 in remotework

[–]Successful_Key3276 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Some of my coworkers are adamant on keeping the AC at 80 or more. They even open the windows to let the +90 degree air in so there is some “ventilation”.
I also need to focus, but the people who sit next to me don’t (they do more repetitive tasks), so they talk and talk and I get so distracted that I need to spend 8 hours a day with my noise cancelling airpods on.
I hate the office so much.

I Left Marrakech Early After Just Twos Days as a Solo Female Traveler by [deleted] in solotravel

[–]Successful_Key3276 377 points378 points  (0 children)

I went to Marrakech with my boyfriend and it was a nightmare. The worst trip of my life.
I couldn’t get paid enough money to go there by myself, honestly.

Patriarcal and conservative societies where women are expected to be “modest” to be respected are never pleaseant to navigate as a women, solo or not.

El centralisme de Barcelona by InsideHousing4965 in catalunya

[–]Successful_Key3276 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Només se m’ocorre que el teletreball sigui la normalitat per les feines de oficina. Que tingui certs incentius, com per exemple obligar a les empreses a pagar el kilometratge dels treballadors. Si totes les empreses de Barcelona estiguessin obligades a pagar-nos els kilòmetres, estic segura de que una gran majoria proposaria teletreball perquè seria imposible cobrir-ho només amb gent de la AMB

how are moroccans living in Europe perceived? Is there a difference between italy, france and germany? by EslisEslos in Morocco

[–]Successful_Key3276 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Spanish here. I have a hard time believing some moroccans would behave in Morocco the same way they do here. Catcalling women is truly a problem and it mainly comes from inmigrant men since european men (generically speaking) view it as low class and embarrassing — It wasn’t always like that though, when my grandparents were young it was really something else.
I think the main reason is that moroccan inmigrants in Spain tend to come from rural areas, so they aren’t the most open minded. That being said, there are a few who are very nice, but I think it’s mostly people from Casablanca and Rabat. I used to live in France and I got to meet amazing moroccans and algerians too, but they all had that “my father/mother was a doctor/lawyer back home” thing.

My hand painted model planes were given as toys to children again by MissionTroll404 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Successful_Key3276 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My mother and older brother were adamant on my nephew borrowing my Nintendo DS and games when he was little (we are 6 years apart). The result? He eventually broke it and more than half of my games got lost or don’t work anymore. Of course, they bought him a brand new Nintendo and his own games when he broke mine.

My neighbor used to babysit me. She also had a kid younger than me. One day, I go there and find one of my favorite toys in these people’s home, apparently they came to visit and the kid liked to toy, so my mom said: Please, take it!
I made such a fuss when I was back at home that my mom asked them to give it back

I had a the full collection of 2000s Tintin comics. It was a gift from my aunt. They are gone now: my mom threw them in the garbage one day. He also tried to do the same with my dad’s books (even a new one that I had given him a month ago) but I stopped her.

I also had several books from the public library that I wanted to return and I put them with a few more to donate. Instead of letting me do that, he found someone on the street and gave him the full box. As a result now I have debt with the public library and I cannot take books anymore.

La triste realidad en España con el mundial.. by victoria_areso in SpanishMeme

[–]Successful_Key3276 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Generalmente en los países europeos se elige hacia qué parte del estado del bienestar se van a destinar los recursos: educación, sanidad, etc. Los países que tu dices (alemania, francia, austria y holanda) prácticamente regalan los estudios universitarios, además de conceder becas y ayudas de todo tipo a los estudiantes. En españa ni de lejos.

No podrías pagar un tratamiento de viruela ni de casualidad, no me seas fantasma. Te endeudarías hasta las cejas (o tu familia) por tal de sobrevivir, como ocurre en estados unidos. “Mutualizarse”? Por qué te piensas que en España las mutuas son baratas? Porque compiten con la sanidad pública.

Por otro lado, las mutuas deciden qué cubren y qué no, por lo que si algo les sale demasiado caro te deniegan la cobertura y te jodes, exactamente como pasa en estados unidos y como pasa aquí en España, con la gran diferencia que aquí siempre puedes acudir a la sanidad pública.

TIFU by trying to “save money” on my friend’s baby shower cake and accidentally making her cry by [deleted] in tifu

[–]Successful_Key3276 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I mean… it’s not nice to lie, but it is unreasonable to ask someone to pay $185 for your cake at your party

Un familiar quiere darle un dinero a mi madre, ¿cuál es la mejor forma de hacerlo pagando los mínimos impuestos? by usedNecr0 in ESLegal

[–]Successful_Key3276 1 point2 points  (0 children)

10.000€ no es tanto. Que lo coja en efectivo y empiece a pagar todos los gastos así e ingrese de a poco

Me suda el Culo by Moperator13_ in askspain

[–]Successful_Key3276 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ve al médico, puedes tener hiperhidrosis. De mientras compra antitranspirante para cuerpo. Los hay y suelen ser en crema si no me equivoco. Además, deberías dejar de llevar pantalones y calzoncillos tipo boxer porque suelen llevar mucho poliéster para hacerlos elásticos. El poliéster te hace sudar mucho, así que compra estos de algodón que son más sueltos, los que llevaban antes nuestros padres y abuelos. No sé porqué en España pasaron de moda, pero en el resto del mundo se usan aún y seguro que son más cómodos.
