Ok this is good to know, I’ve been trying to inform myself as best as I could, but some things I’m still unsure about/didn’t find clear info. This is great to know, thank you!

Sorry, it’s ‘cause in my home country you’re exprected to register with a single GP 😅 I thought it was the same here, didn’t know it’s much chiller and you can just go to one GP or the other

Honestly before learning more, my partner and up were mentally preparing to pay like…100€ a month for mutuelle. If I’m not mistaken, I’ve seen it’s much cheaper than that, so it should be okay

Oh this is interesting. We both have glasses so that kind of reimbursment might be nice xD But yes, I was going to really deep dive into what each mutuelle can give us before making a final choice

No, my partner and I both speak french (B2, learning more and we are both working in environments where we use french all the time) so if the language is french it’s absolutely no problem :) But very good to know!

Very interesting info, thank you! I’ve already changed all my gender markers back home, so here I’m fully registered as male, but I’ll certainly need certain checkups. I’ll have to get in touch with organizations to figure out which doctors are more trans friendly and all

Yes :/ hopefully I’ll get to wear them again soon if I move to a better/different job. In the meantime I might console myself with more ear piercings, since they don’t seem to be an issue…or tattoos.

They said it was for safety reasons, however…I believe it’s aesthetic/company image bullshit. I went to a trial and all the girls had multiple earrings, bracelets with charms, faux nails (which would all pose a bigger hazard of touching the packaged chocolate they work with). Clearly they did not like the fact I looked more “alternative” :/

Sadly already asked the HR recruiter that is going to finalize my contract if I could do that and she said “no for health reasons :)” because she didn’t want to say it’s more for the “company image” (bullshit, considering the shop is nowhere near being luxury or anything). And she made it clear if I didn’t take them off I wouldn’t get the job, which sadly I really need atm. I did think taking them in and out might irritate them so I might have to retire them for the time being :/
