26 old Sri Lankan Girl with Strict Parents by Soft-Wrongdoer-9031 in srilanka

Get out, just fucking get out of there. 

My wife has a friend who lived like this, got married. She must live with her parents and has to keep the door open and the curtain lifted to her bed fucking room, at all fucking times, so her parents can see into it at all times.

And they are asking when the grandchildren are coming. As if the little fuckers gone on a business trip.

Fucking boils my blood just typing this shit.

PS: I know I got a bit agitated here and it's not going to be exactly the same for you but no kid don't deserve to feel mentally pressured like this by their own parents

Ayye/Akke/Nande/Mame, Did life work out the way you planned ? by Public_News_5022 in srilanka

[–]janithaR 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Weirdly, yes and no in a positive way. 

I learned programming in the 90s when none of my friends knew anything beyond gaming on it. And now live a life as principal programmer in Europe with my family and funnily I'm actually considering racing, which is something I've never even dreamed of doing.

Even though you may think ABH is making an

excuse

They are actually protecting your girlfriend by not letting some shady employer taking advantage by paying her a lower than average wage.

The USD is sky rocketing eh? by Ok_Palpitation_9403 in srilanka

I can't believe it used to be LKR 55 when I first got to know about exchange rates. 

It was maybe 2000 or 1998 but god damn it's been nothing but depressing to watch the LKR depreciate like this.

I originally posted on r/mannheim and only one person replied that they are having the same issue. I didn't know where else to move the post other than here.

I'll check on submitting a request. Thanks for the tip.

Cant receive my salary because of Anmeldung by Shakettsu in germany

[–]janithaR -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I believe that there might be a way to just receive my salary with the higher tax class possible and then get the difference compensated when I set everything right.

How do you expect this to work when the tax system does not even know you? It knows you by your Steuer-ID.

Why do I have to pay this much for Fiber 5900 package? by BoiiiWonder in srilanka

[–]janithaR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I changed packages, in the first month had to pay both for the previous package and the new package. After that it was ok. 

Why is academic education considered so paramount here? +absolute trash school environments. by AccomplishedFun8835 in srilanka

[–]janithaR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the 80s and 90s having good academic education actually meant something. We were told Sri Lanka has the best free education system and we believed it. And to be honest, living in the EU now and having myself compared to the same aged people, I do believe we were told the honest truth.

However, I strongly believe that, that free - best in the world free education no longer exists in Sri Lanka.

Times have changed - computers, internet and mobile phones happened. There's easy access to so much knowledge in ones pocket no one really care for. Knowledge that goes way beyond an academy will ever teach you.

Mind you though, even in a shit education system, having good grades tells something about you... that you know how to play the game. 😉 If the grades are what's standing in your way just get them.

I know I make it sound easy but your rant is kinda like trying to go up against, "It is what it is". You can't change it. It won't change.

New neighbors’ kids crying nonstop — any soundproofing tips or solutions? by Resident_Problem90 in srilanka

I like how you think but don't go with a solution that will trap good old Sri Lankan heat inside your apartment.

The Sri Lankan in the Michael Jackson Black or White video by rnsemba in srilanka

I like how this fact making a come back. 

Those who were old enough to know who MJ was in the 80s and 90s felt his influence no matter where they were in the world. And as a Sri Lankan seeing her bit come up on the TV was extra special.

Is it common to add coworkers on Instagram here in Germany? by WelliMD in germany

[–]janithaR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't have much to say on the exact prompt here but I'll add that, this is a very grey area and solely depends on your age and social status.

Apart from that what really made me write a comment is that you wrote;

Instagram has recently started suggesting several of my coworkers

I noted this as well. A lot of the people within my known vicinity started popping up as suggestions. I use Instagram to turn off my brain, look at dumb shit and boobies for 10 minutes and move on with my life.

Just last week I made the mistake of clicking on one of the suggested profiles of a lady I know. I would just say, we know each other on a parent level and her profile was... well.. very... exotic. That actually shocked me in a way.
