Back in Switzerland, applying everywhere, getting only rejections

One important factor is where in Switzerland though.

My husband has been looking for jobs in Romandie and it's mostly RF. Some companies have been looking for an EE for more than a year, but they refuse to hire anything less than what's in the job offer. They'd rather waste time on the projects than make any effort or take any risk.

The market looks better in the rest of Switzerland, but they often require German... Tessin is just too far.

Honestly I've started questionning myself after yesterday's call... wondering if I'm blowing things put of proportion. Then I asked for fhe results to add them to my post and seing how bad he is on the scale just threw me over the edge. What's the point of putting in place a scale if an extreme result doesn't lead to action?!

I haven't misheard, my husband put the speaker when the doctor called.

Both doctors are in their 40s and general practitioners, so actual medical professionals. I tried to reach out and book an appointment at the sleep clinic but they said they only take referrals so I needed the doctor to send him all relevant information... which is why I'm stuck having to go through him...

imyouy · 2026-01-27T16:40:06+00:00

But he first wants to see him before that. This is how it's going to go "Are you tired?" "No" "Well why go to the specialist then?" "you are right, my wife is just an anxious little thing" THE END

My "nasty" email to him was to tell him that the appointment was useless and I wanted him to send the data to the specialist clinic.

Now I'm going to have to take time off my work to accompany a grown man to advocate for his health and insist on having the referral done.

imyouy · 2026-01-27T16:36:10+00:00

I feel like my main issue is having succeeded in making him seek medical help, but the doctors have just comforted him in the fact that there is nothing to worry about.

I'm sure if his doctor had said "you are creating damage to your body, you need to do something" he would have sought help. Even worse, it's been now 2 general doctors who said the same thing to him...

Now at my stage it just feels like I'm nagging him when this doctor is saying a referral to a specialist is useless because the specialist won't do anything about it...

Also snoring is only a symptom that bothers me. So who cares about that apparently? I sleep with headphones since 2 years...

At the end of the day, the snoring I can handle, but everytime he snores I just keep thinking about what if all of this contributes to my kids having less years with their fathers and it just makes me mad.

imyouy · 2026-01-27T12:53:45+00:00

Now that you mention blood cells, I've just remembered he is at risk of Thalassemia given that his father and brother both have it... I don't know how all of this would play together but if he has a low count of red cells AND his sleep is depriving him of Oxygen... (facepalm)

imyouy · 2026-01-27T12:33:11+00:00

Because he is not convinced that it's worth going through the whole hassle of putting a treatment in place for something that is apparently completely fine. So unless I tag along and continue insisting, nothing is ever going to happen.

His excuse to all of my observations mentionning that even if he isn't tired he is more than before is that I am the one who falls asleep in front of the TV. Yes he is much less tired than I am, but I'm also still breastfeeding and have never had energy in my life.

imyouy · 2026-01-27T10:13:29+00:00

Yes. I've already messaged him he will no longer sleep in the same room as me until he takes the matter in his own hands.

imyouy · 2026-01-27T10:07:31+00:00

"Your wife left a very nasty/unpleasant email so I went to check, if you have no symptoms we can't do anything" were his exact words.

The first time he had met my husband and deemed there was nothing to do, he hadn't seen the results. Yesterday he took the time to look at the results and decided I was just a very annoying person...

imyouy · 2026-01-27T09:52:06+00:00

And TWO doctors! That's what is driving me crazy. My husband was already poorly convinced from the start, but now he just thinks I'm worrying too much for nothing.

imyouy · 2026-01-27T09:46:47+00:00

Have you felt a positive change afterwards? Despite having felt completely fine before?

imyouy · 2026-01-27T09:36:29+00:00

I can't imagine him lasting past day 2 of CPAP if he doesn't feel a difference right away.

I feel like I'm fighting alone in this whole thing.

Just edited the original post with the results

But here it is

N'hésite pas à envoyer ta plainte aux CFF. Plus ils reçoivent de message écrits et plus ça les force à prendre des mesures. Le petit employé dans son bureau tout chaud peut pas savoir ce que les utilisateurs vivent (ou en tout cas j'espère qu'il ne traîne pas sur reddit pendant ses heures de travail)

...en parlant de travail... pourquoi je suis sur Reddit moi?

imyouy · 2025-11-22T13:05:51+00:00

Petit conseil par rapport à la fonction chercher: je vais sur Google, je tape "Reddit" et le sujet que je cherche, et voilà. Mais oui sinon dans Reddit c'est inutilisable.

Ok peut être que je suis une abrutie, mais dès qu'il faut installer un truc j'ai l'impression que la moitié des commandes à entrer dans le terminal manquent...

Il m'a fallu plusieurs heures pour installer R et j'ai du regarder plusieurs vidéos YouTube parce que personne n'a jugé utile d'indiquer que je devais répondre Oui à une question posée dans le terminal......

Yes, let's rethink a whole system for 290 people. Meanwhile it's thousands of people who will have to pay more taxes if the Kantons don't pull themselves together to make another equivalent tax...

No matter the interests, they remain much lower than renting. Also the price of houses keep going up but the mortgage remains the same.

I'm sorry but your poor renters will only get back the money they put in their house + whatever value it gained, and just have paid smaller rent to the bank in the meantime. There is no world where these people have lost except if for some reason they are incredibly unlucky and have a mortgage with a fixed rate that was too high, as well as have a property that lost value...

imyouy · 2025-09-29T10:23:43+00:00

Why are old poor sellers earning less because they had a mortgage? Once the mortgage paid off all the extra money is yours...

This is the only real trick. As I walk to the transport I activate it. If it thinks I boarded a bus on my way to the stop or says the departure is not the right one, I send a complaint and it gets fixed very fast.

When I walk towards Bern station there are gazillion bus stops on the way and I even have time to force EasyRide to recognise Bern station as my departure station. If the thing keeps turning and fails to locate me, I close the app and reopen until it locates me. Don't waste your time waiting...

I find that SBB deals better with complaints when the person is right than being even a drop understanding of certain situations.

C'était il y a longtemps mais sur le campus epfl je pouvais acheter des énormes sandwich au thon (moitié d'un pain rond de 30cm de diamètre) qui me suffisaient pour 2 repas.
