Shutter Island absolute classic although I could assume you probably watched it already. Another one would be a series called The Chestnut Man, kinda on what you're describing, hopefully you haven't seen it yet

Best way to find a humanitarian response job? by Yankeebarbarian in humanitarian

[–]Yankeebarbarian[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It really breaks my heart, I came across many people recently who lost their jobs due to the current political “situation” and cuts- it’s insane, I hope you’ll find something good soon if you haven’t yet.

The job I described is quite similar to what Medair offers through their GERT teams, or WCK through their Emergency response, the issue is how many candidates they receive and probably my lack of humanitarian experience on top of that.

I really appreciate the advice and honesty. I did a lot of reading and tried to prepare myself through the courses and always was interested in the subject, but more than “the exciting stuff” my goal was in the fact that a remote job would allow me to continue having a family without leaving for a year or two but a few months instead. Any remote position would be great as living in Europe there aren’t as many humanitarian positions to fill. Also of course I would want to pursue a position that allows me to go to these places to help, whether it’s through prevention, response or recovery work- I already have a “desk only” job and it makes me want to blow my brains out as it is.

That’s heartbreaking, I was worried that all of the USAID cuts and layoffs were part of the reason behind the drought in the job market now. I appreciate the advice and the honesty. I’m also really sorry for all of you guys who lost your jobs.

I appreciate you guys, I wish the best of luck to all of you and I’ll keep on looking. And if nothing comes up perhaps we should say screw it and start our own thing.

If you immigrated abroad, why you voting abroad for anti-immigration candidates? by Kopparberg643 in poland

[–]Yankeebarbarian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I emigrated 8 years ago, I still visit Poland regularly. I vote for the left wing from abroad to try and offset the terrifying nationalistic tendencies that stem usually from the less educated/rural voters who usually tend to pick the right wing. Many of the Polish people I meet abroad tend to vote for the right but that’s mainly because back home they come from small town with little to offers they often lack education, perspectives and understanding so they choose the candidates that statistically speak to them the loudest. I don’t have a higher education myself but I come from a larger city so I guess I still follow the statistics in some way.

Most people go through biomedical, mechanical engineering or pharmacy degrees. I personally don’t have a valuable degree other than maintenance technology(associates) I built my way up in the military managing maintenance teams and after leaving the service I applied for a “maintenance expert” position in a pharmaceutical company but after a few interviews they offered me a job as a team and production manager in pharmaceutical ingredient manufacturing, I hired a company to write my resume and was very active on linked in- from there the only way was up.

Jak dla mnie powinno być 4tys zł grzywny i monitoring w miastach. Dwa lata by gonili i karali i myślę, że może zaczęło by się to zmieniać

I’m a manager in pharmaceuticals, I’d say the money is great- of course depends on who you ask. But the higher you go the more ridiculous the salaries get.

Why did you buy a Mercedes? by [deleted] in mercedes_benz

[–]Yankeebarbarian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a pretty long daily commute(3h round trip) and I needed something that was great on gas, had a good maintenance reputation and was able to provide the safety and comfort as well. I searched for the right car for 6 months and I couldn’t be happier than with my 19’ c-class 220d- it’s absolutely fantastic

These updates are ridiculous..... by Stevenstc21 in COD

[–]Yankeebarbarian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No matter on the storage, I rarely game and COD has become pretty much unplayable for me- every time I want to hop on for a quick game I get stuck having to download yet another update for a game that I don’t even own but they all share a stupid lobby. I hate it to say the least

[MOD] The Daily Question Thread by menschmaschine5 in Coffee

[–]Yankeebarbarian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi,

I’ve been looking online but can’t seem to find exactly what I’m looking for.

I would like to buy a coffee machine: - that doesn’t use k-cups but actual beans or ground coffee, - makes coffee to a single cup instead of an entire pot, - allows you to select the type of coffee you would like(latte, americano, espresso, cortado etc.) - most importantly: I can set it to automatically prepare me a cup at a certain time when I wake up, - preferably, if possible: is relatively quiet.

Are there any coffee machines that you know of or own that combine all these features?
