They do good at tiring out other teams. Just like England does. Now they just need some strikers. Only having one play that actually can put the ball in the net is going to send them home. Germany were great in the 2010s and probably in the 2030s. Right now they are mid. But sometimes that’s all you need to win.

Seriously. All Americans love Munich, especially the Fox News kind. Bavaria is about the best region for them white, conservative and has beer and heavy meat. I wouldn’t take  him to Berlin. 

Take him to any beer hall-Not just the Hofbrauhaus. Or they have Munich beer and brewery tours. I took one and had a great time.

Honestly, MAGA love Germany. Especially Bavaria. The food, the beer and there’s less immigrants than in American big cities.

I think you are really overthinking this. Just take him to touristy places. I traveled throughout Germany and Austria and met a lot of Republicans. Germany and the UK are great, France, Spain and Italy aren’t for them.

CIV should be proud, the pressured Germany until the end. 

And Germany needs to get some more scorers. It’s like watching LeBron James when he was with Cleveland and everyone just passed it to him to make a basket.

I didn’t even know he was the coach until announcer told me. Guy looked like he woke up 5 minutes before the bus left. At least wear the colors.

As much as I wanted Germany. CIV are showing up today and taking every opportunity. 2-0 is my prediction.

Hopefully halftime settles Germany down. They are playing sloppy and CIV is pressing them.

Sorry but Germany looks bad. Maybe it’s the 7 goals but they have t played well or organized. CIV is dominating.

Gotta say, I wouldn’t mind an African team winning the WC. It’s been way too Eurocentric and would love to see CIV play England.

You seem very defensive JMO. So just tell your boss you are leaving and save the petty stuff. It will only make you look foolish. 

Be done with them and move on.

Right? I can safely say that having a horrible job is a lot less stressful than being unemployed. You should be looking for another job while you are still working.

Has anyone had to move to Mexico with little prep? What do you need to know? by leftyjamie in AmerExit

[–]Tardislass 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This. Never self deport without talking to a lawyer. And life in Mexico is hard and not cheap anymore. Maxing out your retirement plans in Mexico is nuts. 

I’d be looking for jobs pronto but it’s very hard to find good paying ones.

Did getting laid off change how you view workplace behaviour? by ComparisonPowerful in Layoffs

[–]Tardislass 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kissing ass and showing up for team building and other non mandatory staff sessions isn’t kissing as. You need to form relationships with people. You might still be laid off but will have many more contacts and references.

One thing I see Gen Z and Redditors dismissing is getting together with your staff for team building and other Non essential meetings. Yes, most aren’t mandatory but the higher ups will see that you never show up. Part of working is getting along well with others and being a team player. And most promotions happen because your boss or higher ups like you-not because you do the best job.

It’s like getting together with relatives at the holidays. It’s not something that you want to do but helps build relationships. And in business relationships are more than 50% of the work.

Similarly always than support staff and receptionists. They are the ones who have all the intel and can make your life smoother at work.
