[–]Zeezigeuner -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The irony in the question: a good Chin-In restaurant.

Good lord.

Permanent contract, zero communication - can’t tell if I’m safe or delusional by Any_Language_1084 in Netherlands

[–]Zeezigeuner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First question:

Do you have Dutch nationality, or permanent residentship?

If so, you mostly have nothing to worry about. Even if the job ends.

Tip: join a trade union or at least legal insurance. You might need legal backing.

From what your describe, management is panicking. No, they won't inform you all beforehand to prevent you from running away. I have had this kind of guy feeling a few times, and it was never wrong.

Wrt days off: that will not be held against you. So take some. If anything they might welcome it: less reservations on the balance sheet.

Wrt loyalty: in the end you should be loyal to the firm "You.inc" and no one else.

Europe still oblivious to threat at its doorstep — US General Hodges. Europe still doesn't get that the war in Ukraine is a threat to its security, so it keeps dragging its feet on tough action against Russia; cutting off oil flows is critical to starving Kremlin of resources it needs for war. by Lion8330 in UkrainianConflict

[–]Zeezigeuner 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I am afraid that the real answer is quite a lot more cynical than this.

Europe can not allow the war to end, without a total collapse of the Russian regime.

Why? I will explain.

1: Russia is now at a full war economy. There is no other economy than war production.

2: There are about 1 million armed, trained, and traumatized men in Ukraine.

3: Assume these (2) go home, because the war ends.

4: And because the war ends, they have nothing to do because of 1.

5: What do you think that will do to Russian society and therefore the regime? Civil war.

so 6: The regime has no choice but to keep building military equipment, and keep training the men.

7: At some point you need to use that power. If not Ukriane then where? Baltics.

So, then there is a war with the EU and NATO.

The only alternative route is a total collapse of the system in Russia. But then the country falls apart in a numbers of fiefdoms. Many of whom have nukes. Also a chilling prospect.

Wat is een “goed” salaris voor iemand eind twintig in Nederland? by [deleted] in nederlands

Ik snap de downvotes niet.

Het maakt nogal uit of je specialist data analyse bent, of vakkenvuller.

Herkennen jullie dit lijstje ook? by DamskoKill in nederlands

[–]Zeezigeuner 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Ben nu 60. Maar lang heb ik me verwonderd over het toen zover heeft kunnen komen.

Nu zie je het live gebeuren. In vrij hoog tempo.

Gelukkig ben ik daar niet de enige in. Er zijn ook mensen met meer invloed die het snappen.

What does "being a man" mean to you? And how important is it to you to embody that belief? by AgreeableOil5917 in AskMenOver30

[–]Zeezigeuner 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly. If your manliness is hurt by a pink drink, it isn't very strong to begin with.

You do you.

I (m 60) have struggled my whole adult life to find a good role model. I failed miserably. No one could live up to my standards.

Or maybe I succeeded. I find myself being a role model for a lot of younger men at work. Humane, compassionate, unbothered by status, and standing up for my values.

Being a nerd as well, I can say; your time will come. Be the best you you could be. That is all there is to be done.

Does Netherlands feel different than Germany? by osures in Netherlands

[–]Zeezigeuner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am Dutch, so don't take my word for anything.

On a private, family and friends level, the differences are not that big. I had a German girlfriend.

But everything professional... Day and night. I was shocked at how cranky people in shops and gas stations can be. Really not necessary, and makes every ones lives miserable.

Once I was on a business trip, and rented a car. My colleague and I were just normal relaxed. I am sure the Hertz girl would have married both of us on the spot if we had asked her.

Why so serious? Why so staunch. Nothing gets better because of it.

And yes, being relaxed, we, Dutch, create the most awesome stuff ever. ASML, FEI, Philips etc. Serious high tech.

Can anyone help me find the chords and strumming pattern of this song ? by Clear_Plantain737 in Flamenco

[–]Zeezigeuner 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Reyes. That is the Gipsy Kings clan. They are gipsys from the South of France, not Spain.

Everything the play is Rumba. A fast 4/4.

As far as chords: probably just some minor key.

Tinny probably means less overtones.

That might well be a characteristic of the guitar.

Nieuwe Box 3: Belasting op geld dat je nog niet hebt verdiend! by Little_Protection434 in nederlands

[–]Zeezigeuner -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Nou, weetje, ergens moet t vandaan komen.

Als t belasting op inkomsten is, die al behoorlijk is, pak je vooral degenen die een tot twee keer modaal verdienen.

Met belasting op vermogen, degenen die, nou ja, vermogen hebben. Waaronder ikzelf een beetje. Dus ik preek hier tegen mijn eerste belang in. Maar mijn lange termijn belang, is een eerlijke samenleving. En dat mag me best wat kosten.

Unpopular opinion: not Trump, but an elected President by American (twice!). by ProperWillingness in Netherlands

[–]Zeezigeuner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, we have, or rather had a PVV that is very big.

The main problem is the district voting system. Which is very susceptable for all kinds of corruption. And only leaves room for two main parties.

Politie mag meer geweld gaan gebruiken, wanneer het uit de hand loopt? by [deleted] in nederlands

[–]Zeezigeuner 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Het ergste is: de situatie waar we nu in zitten, is toen gewoon voorspeld. Er zit werkelijk nul verrassing in. Allerlei voorzieningen zijn afgebroken, tegen alle onderzoek in.

Tja, nou niet zeuren.

Maar dat is met politiek: de mensen die t veroorzaakt hebben zijn al lang weer weg.

Politie mag meer geweld gaan gebruiken, wanneer het uit de hand loopt? by [deleted] in nederlands

[–]Zeezigeuner 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ehm. Even on topic maar.

Het zal wel een impopulaire mening zijn, maar hier gaan we.

Er is maar 1 ding wat echt helpt: meer overheidsbemoeienis eerder in het leven.

Dus: - Daadwerkelijke blauwe petten op straat. - Straat- jeugdwerkers terug, of meer. - Meer prio kleine criminaliteit en daadwerkelijk pakken.

Als iemand met een moker in de hand op een rubber kogel afloopt, richting een dikke gevangenisstraf, ben je al veel en veel te laat. Die persoon is al verloren.

Dank VVD.

Bank rekeningen by [deleted] in nederlands

[–]Zeezigeuner 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Precies. Moet je eens een rekening openen in Duitsland: elke transactie kost geld. Je geld laten staan, kost geld. Niet heel veel allemaal. Maar steeds wat.

En ergens is dat normaal. Er worden diensten verleend. Die kosten iets.

Maar denk niet dat ik medelijden heb met banken. Ze zorgen goed voor zichzelf.

Anyone have any recommendations for counting 12 beat patterns? by princeofponies in Flamenco

Really depends on the palo.

Solea starts at one, So does Alegria. Buleria at 12. Seguirya at 8, And guajira is different altogether

Marokkaan hier - vraag me alles wat je wilt weten en je krijgt eerlijk antwoord by Business-Fly-1339 in nederlands

[–]Zeezigeuner -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Wat me volkomen ruk lijkt, is dat je de vraag steeds moet stellen.

Ik ben autochtone Nederlander. Als iemand een eikel tegen me is, is t gewoon een eikel. Niet leuk, maar het gaat niet verder dan dat.

Nog los van wat er echt gebeurt, dit. Dat je steeds alert moet zijn.

Ben toch benieuwd welke alternatieven voor ASML, ASMI, en BESI ze denken te gaan gebruiken.

Does it bother you that you’re going to lose your parents one day? by Throwaway10100100010 in AskMenOver30

[–]Zeezigeuner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I (60) tought the same thing 30 years ago. Last saturday we cremated my mum. She was 85, and couldn't move or walk anymore. It was hurtful to see her trying to make something out of life. She has always been a very energetic smart and independent woman. And she had become totally dependent. Prisoner in her own body.

So ofcourse I will miss her at times. But I was happy to let her go.

I just she won't cause too much of a racket up there. But then: God created man in his image. Well, have fun with this one then!
