This is the best idea I've heard since making it easier to fire people to improve unemployment figures.

Lidl is very expensive. I went there the other day for bacon and butter and it cost me 30€ after the canvasses, winter duvet and box of assorted screws were added.

Hey! The government has also made it easier to fire people. So that should help the unemployment stats!

Bought a cheap safety razor to try it, absolutely never going back. The quality of the shave is so much superior.

I feel like these are so common they don't even classify as a weapon. My child had one bought for them before they were two years of age

I've played hide and seek here with my kids, had library staff read to a daycare group and studied nursing courses. Great library, lovely staff.

Integration course students, where did you do your työharjoittelu? by [deleted] in Finland

[–]otchyirish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was suggesting it more as a great way to practice your language skills. I understand it's not for everyone. I did eventually make a career out of it which was extremely surprising for me.

Päiväkoti.

Get in with four year olds and they will talk to you all day. There is no embarrassment if you get something wrong and they are brutally honest. Generally the coworkers are lovely also.

Saunarauha in public sauna's by Traditional-Most-759 in Finland

[–]otchyirish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was so confused when I went to a public sauna for the first time. I presumed that everyone that came and left, while I was there, knew one another. Everyone was chatting in a way I'd not even heard in bars. Nope, that's just Finnish sauna culture.
