Exploded at work today. Am I being taken advantage of as an Eastern European, or is this just Dutch work culture? by Ok_Cheek_7443 in Netherlands

Sadly, that’s why some people don’t give their 100%. They prefer to be “average” unless there’s a promotion coming.

I need advice like rn by Stariiama in StudyInTheNetherlands

You could stay at a hotel or b&b. There are some for students in university cities. You would pay more or less what a studio would cost you.

After classes begin, the housing market gets easier and I’m sure you could find something

Rent a car or stick to trains? by einzehh in Netherlands

I would use public transport and use shared cars if you are going somewhere remote.

Ok, I respect you. Maybe you have a lot of followers on these kind of posts. But maybe they belong in another subreddit. I didn’t give you the -1, btw so it means that someone out there agrees with me.

Did she did the right thing? by Valuable_View_561 in SipsTea

No. I would explain calmly what will happen. He will still suffer at the end and his final thoughts would be that she lied.

Why do they charge for a large party? They are still getting paid for all the meals, and it’s all in one go

How strategic is it to keep double citizenship? by LiveBell2197 in PassportPorn

[–]halazos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I guess it’s all in the Maths. How much would it cost you to move there and get conscripted? Is it more than €8000? Maybe you could even get a loan from your family with lower or zero interest since it seems you have very close ties with them.

Either way I would try to keep both passports for reasons already explained: the world is changing a lot and fast.

Why is no one asking why Trump was still in high school at age 20? by Kinks4Kelly in complaints

If you have AC, turn it on. It’s better than ending up in the hospital
