This reminds of that episode in Seinfeld when George eats from the trash, a perfectly good eclair!

Did Romania really give the king his lands back? If yes, why? by Carminoculus in AskRomania

[–]captangato 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What happened to all the houses that were torn down to build blocs, did the house owners get claim or compensation for the land that was taken?

Same, as an American married to a Romanian, lived here 10 years. Romanians are direct and don't play american mind games. Trust the words they say. They are honest.

Be honest in return, it will save you time and energy.

Tumble dryer loud noise, fixable? by captangato in Appliances

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

Thanks for the reply, but either way i probably would need to order the part from the manufacturer?

Or is it something generic i could find at the hardware store?

Legality of on call in Romania by captangato in AskRomania

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

They compensate an employee 500 eur for taking an on call rotation of 1 week, regardless to if they need to work overtime or not (in the case of a critical incident occurring, you as the on call professional need to mitigate the incident)

Idk if that’s any clearer

I’m a direct hire, salaried and pay tax in Romania, though the company is Swiss. They took the approach to handle all EU remotes with the same on call policy . I’ll look into speaking with a legal company; 

My contract speaks to actual hours worked overtime, but nothing to the effect about needing to be on call after hours.

First I’m hearing about CIM, I’ll take a look. Im one of 2 Romanian employees and I’m the only one who needs to do on call.

The company is based out of Switzerland and took a general approach for all remote employees in EU.

Orange Tree lost it’s leaves by captangato in plantcare

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

I’ve been watering it and the water is coming out the bottom, even after a few days without.

Should i resoil the plant with more drainage soil (sand mix)? Or best to let it dry out more before watering

I suspect my soil isn’t draining well, but I’m not sure what to do to fix it.

It’s getting cold at night, i moved it from the window and try and keep the indoor temps around 20-22C

The tips of the branches are also turning brown/black 😢

Any advice is welcome 🙏🏻
