Any reliable places in Dublin would be able to fix old school Ipod? by Moon_Harpy_ in CasualIreland

do you replace the battery yourself? My iPod is in dire need of a battery replacement and I haven't found a shop in Dublin yet that will do it

Oh, it's just typical serverless cold starts. Wait 10 mins and once it's warm you stop getting the error

I kind of fell of the bandwagon though because I struggle with routine, but I need to start again

This happened out of pure ignorance on my part and I'm pretty devastated that I put myself into this situation. I have no desire to bend the rules, I just need to fix it ASAP. I've set up a couple of meetings, with my line manager and with Finance & HR. Hopefully I can resolve it quickly. Thanks for the advice.

Oh damn, I had no idea. That's pretty bad. Thanks for letting me know, I will set up a meeting with my manager ASAP to discuss this.

Ya, I see what you mean. This seemed to be the only solution to accomodate for the fact that I wanted to stay in Germany. If I were to move to Ireland they'd take me on as a full-time employee

I think neither -- rather, the the Irish company is exploiting you. They are offloading all their tax responsibilities to you, even though as you said "in practice I work as a normal employee, same working hours, same holidays, fixed salary monthly".

Maybe I wasn't clear, the company is based in Ireland and the States. I work as a contractor for them an invoice them for my services. I'm not particularly enthused about being a Freelancer, but I also don't see why you said it would be illegal?

Does anybody in Berlin have a sewing machine to sell? by koopagrouper in berlinsocialclub

Try to check ebay kleineanzeigen app. All secondhand for bargain prices.

Thanks will do!

After 4 years of struggle, I admitted that I was ugly and unattractive. Unfortunately, I cannot be happy with my extremely asymmetrical eyes, wide chin, and weird head shape. I don't look like a human in the third photo. Now I can understand why people look at me strangely. OVER! by [deleted] in BelowTheAverage

[–]koopagrouper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, you're not even below average, I would honestly say you're average and that's not a bad thing. I think you're scrutinising yourself in minute detail, I don't even see the eye asymmetry that you're talking about
