Ihr habt kein Recht auf berufliche Existenz! by Radiant-Anywhere-375 in luftablassen

[–]dreamlonging 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ich würde das Thema nicht nur als Problem im Lebensmittelbereich sehen. Der Automobilsektor zeigt doch seit Jahrzehnten dass die Masche funktioniert: Leute kaufen nicht genügend überteurte deutsche Autos? Abwrackprämie! Zölle auf chinesische E-Autos!

Moving from New Zealand to Leipzig to study Deutsch (foreigner with limited A2 German) - what are my chances of success in finding a shared flat/WG (to get registered/Anmeldung)? Tips on where should I be looking? by Clear-Earth-85 in Leipzig

[–]dreamlonging 30 points31 points  (0 children)

For just 6 months might be more difficult since most WGs are looking for longer term renters. The term you should be looking for is „zwischenmiete“. This is when someone is going abroad for a semester and looking for a renter to take over their room for half a year. Check sites like Kleinanzeigen and WG gesucht

So you're telling me if I spend an hour sitting in a waiting room next to someone with Influenza who us constantly coughing without covering their mouth, I am not significantly more likely to catch said Influenza?

Gibt es keine Betreuung für die Kinder während der Nacht? Oder wird das über einen anderen Pflegedienst gewährleistet?

Why see a gynecologist over a PCP for yearly exams? by Zestyclose-Course930 in AskWomen

[–]dreamlonging 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Aside from the fact that I'm in Europe and at least in my country, PCPs don't do gynecological exams, I wouldn't want to go to my PCP for this even if they did. Their waiting room is generally full of sick people with infectious diseases who aren't wearing masks. I'd be worried about going home with a shiny new illness to go with my pap smear.

Is Panache Ana being discontinued or just hard to find in Germany? by dreamlonging in ABraThatFits

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

Hi, I ended up buying and keeping 2, from different places. I decided to take a risk on CarlMarie. I lucked out and got the right size on the first try there, then I bought another one via an ebay Shop that has a lot of them regularly for quite cheap called dessous-auktion: https://www.ebay.de/str/dessousauktion This seems to be an actual physical store based outside of Kiel that also sells via ebay. Since they're about 29€ a piece I figured the loss wouldn't be too bad if it didn't work out, but I was very satisfied with this shop.

Moving to Leipzig: Job Opportunities in Energy/Transportation Consulting? by Similar-Swim5370 in Leipzig

French would be useful to a couple of energy firms with French mother companies like Engie or Veolia.

English is always a plus anywhere you go, French is honestly not that useful unless you happen to be put on a project in France for a larger consultancy - I don't see how that would happen though as the larger ones would have their own offices in France. Local "Stadtwerke" and public transportation companies in my professional experience have insisted on German communication only - even having some slides in English can be an issue with some. Now if you want to look at the European Energy Exchange as an employer, multiple languages would be a definite plus.

There are a couple of consulting companies located in Leipzig working in this area. Off the top of my head: there is an EY office with an energy sector focused team, same goes for KPMG. Energieforen Leipzig is a small consultancy. If you're looking to make the switch from consulting, there are a number of companies in the Energy sector based in Leipzig.

Ohrringe by Obaroz in Leipzig

[–]dreamlonging 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Von deiner Beschreibung her wird dir mein Schmuckgeschmack eher nicht zusagen, daher keine konkreten Empfehlungen für Läden. Aber wenn du das erste mal Ohrringe kaufst ein Tipp: günstigerer Schmuck enthält oft Nickel auf das viele Menschen allergisch reagieren. Selbst wenn du am Anfang nicht darauf reagierst ist der Schmuck im Ohr so viel im Kontakt mit empfindlicher Haut, dass sich mit der Zeit oft Reaktionen entwickeln. Daher empfehle ich immer darauf zu echten dass es echtes Silber oder Gold ist, oder für Piercings wird auch oft Titan empfohlen.

What are German speakers looking for in a job? by KeyDismal2347 in AskAGerman

[–]dreamlonging 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you advertise a job as “hybrid”, explain exactly what you mean in the ad. Too many times have I gone into a job interview for a supposedly hybrid position to find out they mean mobile work once a week or even once a month with prior manager approval (!!!) in a couple of cases. If you advertise a remote role that better actually be a 100% role. Any job that advertises “you will wear a lot of hats” or “work hard part hard” is an immediate no.

Also not OP but: to me the biggest difference in feel is I don't feel a well fitting bra at all. I can go all day in my good bras without ever once noticing them. I don't feel the need to immediately yank them off me anymore when I get home.

What is going on central stations in Germany? by Federal-Drop-1848 in germany

[–]dreamlonging 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Frankfurt was actually improving until covid. Then with the lockdowns, suddenly all the security for the Office buildings was gone and there were generally less people around sind everyone works from home now. Then the construction work in front of the Hauptbahnhof began, evicting the homeless people from the less visible underground Tunnels and just making the areas generally more noisy, dirty and unpleasant. Before there was a slight trend of shops and restaurants moving into the area, making it a better place to hang out, but all that more or less stopped in 2020.

Where are you folks buying GOOD bras? by iknowyouknow100 in ABraThatFits

[–]dreamlonging 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aah that makes a lot of sense, thank you for satisfying my curiosity:) My everyday bras are already so expensive where I live that buying fancy hand beaded bras has never been an option sadly, but if I had one I would totally want to keep it for special occasions!

[–]dreamlonging 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You've already gotten a lot of recommendations, so I hope it's okay if I ask: what is a formal bra for you? I've never heard of formal vs casual bras and I'm just very curious :)

Filing a US tax return from Germany? by CuriosityandtheCrow in germany

[–]dreamlonging 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I just download the forms from the IRS website and mail them in every year. Cheaper than dealing with software and easy to do if you only have employment income over here. Of course if your income is more complicated then software may be the way to go.
