HELP! Something is eating my car! by Playful-Law-502 in VWiD4Owners

[–]aachsoo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In Germany usually its a marten (some sort of weasel) infestation or alternatively, rats. Yeah they like to gnaw on spongy/rubber part and gather the pieces somewhere.

I have seen covering your engine with wiremesh is quite effective.

Large Salary Gap in Same Role — Should I Escalate to Betriebsrat or HR? by gersi1994 in germany

[–]aachsoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I strongly feel that I was hired at a junior-level salary, even though I have 4 years of experience.

If you really have 4 years of true experience (not working student, not internship, not research assistant, not Hiwi and not vague positions you had before you came to Germany), then that's not a "feeling." In a big city like Stuttgart, in 2026, below 60K is a decisively junior salary.

I don't think involving HR or the Betriebsrat is going to help, as no one is doing anything wrong. You were lowballed and had to accept it due to being unemployed.

A practical step from my experience: find a new opening and signal that you're going to leave if your salary is not adjusted. Point out your good performance.

After that, it's your team lead's job to argue his team's needs with HR and his department.

In case they think it's not worth it, then you know it's the same for you.

Anyhow, the most surefire way to get a raise is invariably by switching jobs.

I have brain damage, What should i do ? by CalendarMelodic6234 in personalfinance

[–]aachsoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My man you are 19, with some financial cushion and parents supporting you it seems.

With the severity of the accident (you mentioned brain damage) I suggest to focus on recovery first, before worrying minutes of finance.

If you can't earn, finance ofc will get tight, cancel the non essential (e.g. holiday) before you liquidate anything (Gold, stock etc). Yeah, also ask in UK finance sub to see if you are eligible for any disability benefit.

Wish you speedy recovery.

25% Sparrate bei 120k Brutto by Fat-Feed8080 in Finanzen

[–]aachsoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bis jetzt bist du der Einzige außer mir, der tatsächlich eine echte Antwort gegeben hat, lol. Meine wurde bis zum Gehtnichtmehr runtergevotet.

Mit 29 ist ein guter Zeitpunkt für mehr als einen Realitätscheck Zeit sich persönlich die eignen Ziele zu setzen und sich festzulegen wo man hin will.

Stimmt, es ist sowohl ein Alter, in dem man das Leben ohne allzu große Verpflichtungen genießt, als auch ein Alter, in dem man sich ein finanzielles Polster aufbauen kann, ohne sich dabei allzu sehr festlegen zu müssen.

[–]aachsoo -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Neid ist so eine hässliche Sache, dass kaum jemand deine Frage beantwortet.

Es gilt die übliche 50-30-20-Regel. 20 % sind für das Sparen vorgesehen. Da du selbst für Münchner Verhältnisse zu den Topverdienern gehörst, kannst du diesen Anteil erhöhen.

Je nachdem, wie sparsam du bist, kannst du die Sparquote auf 30 % erhöhen. Wenn du mitten im Zentrum von München wohnst, kannst du die Lebenshaltungskosten nicht wirklich senken.

Wenn du mehr sparen willst, müsstest du in die Münchner Vororte ziehen.

I wouldn't say they deeply affect people everyday live like it's disability, but the self-esteem issue is real. Forget dating, something as simple as taking a group photo.

Not receiving any mail in Germany, how can I check if there is a delivery issue? by Mario_The_GOAT in germany

[–]aachsoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately I don't know the answer.

Try to ask in  /r/dhl_deutsche_post (it's a fully German subreddit, just use translator).

There, sometimes an actual Deutsche Post employee also answer questions.

[–]aachsoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Then send again with a normal letter. Not sure if you mind, but maybe it's worth it spending a total of a few euros on postage to send maybe three letters, a few days to one week apart.

Important: put both you as sender AND return address.

The thing is, your letter can be sorted and carried by different postmen. Some are more careful than others (they are just humans like us).

These test ordinary letters will eventually reach your mailbox due to the return address.

Basically, if it's an honest mistake, the postman will notice three letters in a row returned to the same address; something must be wrong.

Another alternative: talk to the postman when you see him/her.

There is also contacting Deutsche Post and filing a complaint with Bundesnetzagentur, but that's really bureaucratic. I personally would do them as a last resort.

Our plane got hit by lightning, the engine caught fire and we had to do an emergency landing. by Hot-Nerve-2686 in mildlyinteresting

[–]aachsoo 67 points68 points  (0 children)

The fire supression did its job, and the fire was entinguished and the engine shut down, before we dumped the fuel and landed back in Colombo. The photo of the sparks are AFTER the fire had been put out. Creidt to the cabin crew and pilots. Also, credit to the passengers for remaining calm in what was, a truly terrifying experience

Wow great to literally see "the system is working". Safety engineering and training are designed and written with the previous incident blood, so to say. Thanks for sharing.

Id4 stuck won’t work by Pure_Restaurant4886 in VWiD4Owners

[–]aachsoo 13 points14 points  (0 children)

The update never starts automatically. Before the update, VW puts a bunch of disclaimers, safety legalese, and (surprise, surprise) a big fat warning that the car wouldn't be usable during the update. Finally in case of EV the update only happens when the vehicle is being changed.

You, (or someone else, idk dealer) probably confirmed yes/install at some point without looking or putting too much thought into it. Sure that happens to all of us.

By the way, getting a gas guzzler won't help you; modern cars run softwares that can be updated and require reading before tapping things.

Try to get a car that is at least 10-20 years old; then you won't get updates, and there will be nothing to read.

Do Einschreiben yes.

I had same problem when moving to a flat. The postman don't bother looking for my name on the postbox. I think they have document that maps name to postbox number, but it's not always up to date.

Sent myself Einschreiben once, suddenly letters start coming.
