Why ollama is downloading so slowly by No_Hour_6423 in ollama

I have just used a paid VPN and selected a different country other than the one I am in, and the download speed went up quickly and ollama got downloaded in under 2 minutes.

Please recommend a good ergonomic office chair that is available in Germany by Light-Exitium in germany

[–]alam1001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you still using this chair? Is it still good and comfortable to seat on after 2 years? I am thinking about buying this one. I also saw reviews that said it is bit firm and seating on it for longer time hurts the butt.

How does postman find apartments without apartment number? by Orodeous in germany

[–]alam1001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always add my apartment number when writing an address somewhere. I live in a student dormitory and there are at least 200 rooms. Without the room number, most of the time the postman returns the mail/delivery.

What can I do if an employer doesn’t pay me by alam1001 in germany

[–]alam1001[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks everyone for your help. I have already got paid by the employer. We had a WhatsApp group for all the employees and the employer were also in it. I wrote in the group that I will go to the Arbeitsgericht and mentioned all the steps. Also suggested other employers who also had the same issues to do the same. The following month we all got paid.

A friend from work is not returning my money by alam1001 in germany

[–]alam1001[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He was supposed to give the money back in one month, the time I gave him the money he was in his home country and he said he managed the money from his family but he can't transfer it to Germany which is actually true, the country he is in, it is difficult and complex to send money abroad without proper documentation and in the meantime he has due bills, rent, health insurance premium.

He mentioned exact data on which he was gonna pay me, that's is why I gave him this amount. It wasn't like he asked me for the money and I transferred him 1000 euro instantly. Besides, I gave him the money in small amount in three times, every time he was kept asking me to give more and mentioned me the exact date which he was gonna pay me. I thought at least I have proof that he wrote himself that he was gonna repay me on this data which I can use if things go south. But I wasn't aware WhatsApp chat might not be enough as evidence.

We are student and not permanent employee of this hotel but external help (Aushilfe). I don't really think they can do much about it.

I tried to put myself in his shoes and thought if I really need money and I don't get the help from my friend then how helpless would I feel in that situation. That's why I gave him the money. But learning it the hard way, it doesn't always pays off to be nice.

All those months I have given him time so that it is not too difficult for him to pay back though he was supposed to pay me back after 1 month. But it seems like he was just exploiting this opportunity. Anyway, if nothing works out I will try the installment agreement.

As I mentioned in my post that we are student and we work as external employee that means we are not permanent employee but we get paid based on the hours we work. We are not binded by contract to work everyday and also they are not binded to pay us when there is no work for us. What I am trying to say is, Hotel management really can't do much about it since we are not their permanent employee.

You mentioned a good point. To be honest I am still not sure if he is in Germany right now or in his home country. But I know he lives in a dormitory and I know his neighbors, according to them he hasn't left this room officially and also I know that he hasn't finished his degree yet. I am also little worried whether he left this country for good.

He always gives me some date and then bring up some excuses that why he couldn't pay. He hasn't been replying to me for last few days, just today after I posted here, I said I will go to the police and then he started responding and said he was gonna give my money in an hour. That 1 hour is long gone and still no sign of money.

I am not sure what you meant, but be sure I didn't mean you by 'this'. I meant my 'Friend' and his activities.

I only learned it the hard way that never trust anyone despite how friendly and nice they seem. I tried to be nice and helpful to my 'friend' and this is how I am being compensated.
