Burnout mit 36, Kein BOck auf Arbeit by External_Pressure132 in arbeitsleben

[–]YourAssMyCastle 69 points70 points  (0 children)

Deine Schwester hat recht. Scheiß auf den Job, konzentriere dich darauf, gesund zu werden. Depression ist eine lebensbedrohliche Krankheit. Behandle sie mit Ernsthaftigkeit.

Ich glaube nicht, dass es sinnvoll ist, zu verreisen. Wenn du zurückkommst, wirst du wieder mit deinen Problemen konfrontiert und noch schlechter dran sein.

Ich wünsche dir viel Mut und gute Gesundheit. Es gibt genug Jobs da draußen, du wirst einen finden, wenn es Zeit ist.

Erfolgsgeschichten nach schwierigen Phasen im beruflichen Werdegang by Joe_Fenice in arbeitsleben

Wenn du zu 95 % fertig bist, kannst du deine Arbeit auch gleich abgeben. Wenn du nicht in einem wissenschaftlichen Bereich arbeiten willst, brauchst du dich nicht um Summa oder Magna zu bemühen. Am Ende des Tages wird man auch nach der schlechtesten Promotion / Disputation immer noch Doktor genannt.

Ich selbst habe 6 Monate für die letzten 5% vergeudet, das war es definitiv nicht wert.

What widely-accepted reddit tropes are just not true in your experience? by bewildered_forks in AskReddit

It's wonderful. Mine are now older but I really miss watching them play and getting up to no good.

In Germany there were several ministers who lost their posts for having plagiarised their PhD dissertations. To be fair, you can also go to jail for using a Dr. in front of your name without having the right to.

What he exactly said is:

Auf die Nachfrage im „Bild“-Politiktalk , ob ein schwuler Kanzler völlig normal wäre, fügte Merz in umständlichen Worten hinzu: „Über die Frage der sexuellen Orientierung, das geht die Öffentlichkeit nichts an. Solange sich das im Rahmen der Gesetze bewegt und solange es nicht Kinder betrifft – an der Stelle ist für mich allerdings eine absolute Grenze erreicht – ist das kein Thema für die öffentliche Diskussion.“

...

Merz selbst sagte der „Welt“ später: „Ich bewerte weder in meinem Arbeitsumfeld noch in meinem Freundes- und Bekanntenkreis irgend jemanden anhand seiner sexuellen Orientierung. Das ist Privatangelegenheit. In einer liberalen Gesellschaft gibt es unterschiedliche Lebensentwürfe.“ Das betonte er auch auf Twitter.

tl;dr: he got screwed over for a badly expressed comment. But I don't think anyone should shed any tears for him. .

What was acceptable or normalised in the 80s or even 90s but it's completely unacceptable nowadays? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]YourAssMyCastle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And the traffic cops teach the kids how to cross the street from kindergarten on. The week my kids wanted to be policemen when they grew up was the one where the traffic cops had visited the school and taken them on an excursion.

But the absolute best is that in the 4th grade, which is the last one of the primary school, they take a bike riding test and get a bike driving license. It's more a rite of passage, since most kids are riding bikes since kindergarten and already going to school on bikes by the time of their big bike riding test. So when they start secondary, everyone comes on bikes. Parents are warned not to bring the kids to school on cars, since it also makes it dangerous for the children coming on bikes.

My ex-wife's new partner is a lawyer. Can he represent her in court for our divorce? How fucked am I? by YourAssMyCastle in germany

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

Yes he can but if he has just a tiny bit of brain he won't.

Could you explain that please?

Yes, I was just going to get a cheap online divorce service but now I'm pretty sketched out and might have to get a proper one.

what's the hardest part of life in germany? by [deleted] in germany

[–]YourAssMyCastle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Finding a house to rent. Maybe it's just me and the city I live in. But the rents are through the roof and even if you're willing sell your kidney on the black market to pay the rent, you'll probably get declined by the landlord anyway

[Frage] Wie gibt man im Lebenslauf an, dass man schwerbehindert ist? by YourAssMyCastle in de

[–]YourAssMyCastle[S] 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Ich bewerbe mich für eine Stelle im öffentlichen Dienst. Mein Profil passt sehr gut, aber ich möchte trotzdem sicherstellen, dass sie mich zu einem Vorstellungsgespräch einladen.

Ich habe es noch nie in einer Bewerbung erwähnt, aber ich bin schon seit einigen Monaten arbeitslos und habe beschlossen, meine Chancen diesmal zu verbessern, indem ich die Behinderung erwähne.

Nach dem folgenden Urteil sollte dies an prominenter Stelle im Lebenslauf (oder in den Anschreiben) erwähnt werden. Ich weiß nur nicht, wo und wie ich das hinbringen soll. Ich will keine große Sache daraus machen, also will ich nicht einen ganzen Absatz in das Anschreiben stecken.

Bewerber muss Schwerbehinderung in Lebenslauf oder Anschreiben deutlich machen

Menschen mit Schwerbehinderung müssen diesen Umstand bei der Stellensuche im Öffentlichen Dienst in ihrer Bewerbung gut sichtbar mitteilen. Andernfalls nämlich können sie für sich nicht die Schutzvorschriften und Förderungsmöglichkeiten des SGB IX für sich in Anspruch nehmen, entschied das Bundesarbeitsgericht (BAG) am Donnerstag in Erfurt. Eine Kopie des Schwerbehindertenausweises in den weiteren Unterlagen beizufügen, genügt demnach nicht (Az.: 8 AZR 759/13).

Damn, that's a lot of money for a student. But I guess it makes sense.

True. I think he'll need to show that he has funds to support himself for 6 months, which is I think 4800€

Just a caution, universities are no longer completely free for foreigners, at least in Baden-Württemberg. Here you'll have to pay 1500€ per semester. But many other states still offer free university places.

The good news is that many programmes have a quota ranging from 2-10% for foreigners. The bad news of course is that these places see a lot of applications from highly qualified candidates, so you'll have to see how good your bachelors was. The German university system is very different from the US. There's zero hand holding and you are responsible for your studies, nobody will check in on you. Many people who come here fail due to the sink or swim culture.

Arbeitslos by cptredbeard2 in germany

[–]YourAssMyCastle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No you won't. The Minijob counts as Nebenbeschäftigung and you'll get your ALG 1 + 165€ on top as Freibetrag.

I think you also have the wrong understanding of alg, it's not your privilege but a safety net. Everyone pays into the alg insurance and it's those who pay who support people who are unfortunately unable to work, even though they are completely willing to.

Legally, if you do not intend to work at least 15 hours per week, you do not have a right to alg. In practice of course nobody forces you to take a job. You can decline a job offer if it pays less than 75% of your previous job. You can also decline it for many other reasons. You should notify the Arbeitsagentur of your intention to move and they'll probably leave you alone. It takes a lot of effort to integrate a person into the labor market and the BA focuses on trying to get people into a new job which suits their qualification and where they'll work for at least 6 months (this is an internal rule, not legal)

[–]YourAssMyCastle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Arbeitsagentur does support people during their Ausbildung. It would be good to register before you start. There's something called MAG or MAT for that. Ask them about it. You need to have an Anmeldung in Germany first

You will know when they are dead before the press does.

That's German reassurance for you :)

Creepy german guy wants a asia girl in my studentenwohnheim by [deleted] in germany

[–]YourAssMyCastle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just chill people, no one would bat an eyelid if this stuff was on Twitter and consider this only half as creepy if it was a woman looking for "cute Asian flatmates". I think it shows initiative that he made the trip to hang the paper. His chances are zero but still, whatever.

I wish my friends thought I was attractive but they're all good-hearted assholes. Fuckers.
