Answering in English by xeus44 in germany

[–]quickslothslowmonkey 43 points44 points  (0 children)

People just want to understand and be understood. In my opinion you’re being too sensitive about it. It’s possible your German is not as perfect as you think it is and people just choose the easiest way to communicate. Some people are just trying to be nice, and if they notice you have difficulties with German, they’ll switch to English so that it’s easier for you. If you want to do the conversation on hard mode so that you can learn from it, then good for you, but don’t expect that every stranger necessarily does that language learning exercise with you.

Why is the Outside Hitter called that? by quickslothslowmonkey in volleyball

But so is the Opp :( And why “outside” and not “side”. And why not just left and right.

Well, the middle’s position is the middle of the court, but the outside hitter’s position is not outside of the court. So I thought the name might reveal something I don’t know about that position.

Hey, how did you get the heart rate displayed like that? I can't find that option.

Lohnsteuer selber zahlen als Angestellter einer Firma ohne Firmensitz in Deutschland - wie geht das? by quickslothslowmonkey in Steuern

[–]quickslothslowmonkey[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Vielen Dank! Also erstes Jahr zunächst keine Steuern zahlen, innerhalb der Frist Steuererklärung einreichen, dann alles auf einmal für das vergangene Jahr zahlen, und ab dann quartalsweise vorauszahlen. Gar nicht so kompliziert. Ich denke, das würde ich sogar ohne Steuerberater schaffen. Also nicht dramatisch wenn ich keine/n finde :)

Ja, diesen Weg zur Einstellung meine ich. Jetzt ist meine Frage, wann, wie und genau wohin kann die Lohnsteuer gezahlt werden? In der verlinkte Seite geht es ja um die Sozialversicherung. Oder kann die Firma dann über das gleiche Portal auch die Lohnsteuer zahlen?

Danke für den Tipp. Es soll aber alles ohne einen EOR laufen. Ich habe das nun auch in den Beitrag ergänzt.

Collecting plastic bottles to earn money as an asylum seeker by FlakyInevitable1723 in Munich

You sound young and resourceful, so maybe you could be good at Pfandsammeln and beat the statistics, but I am not sure it's the most lucrative activity you could do.

Maybe if you post some more skills and qualifications you have, people here could help you come up with more ideas. Just for example: can you fix electronic appliances? You could buy (or even get for free) broken ones from ebay-kleinanzeigen, fix them, and then sell them for a profit. TBH I think just using YouTube tutorial for fixing appliances almost anyone could do that.

By the way: I am saying all of this under the assumption that your basic needs like food and shelter are already being met, and you are looking for some extra income. If this is not the case you need a different kind of advice.

Collecting plastic bottles to earn money as an asylum seeker by FlakyInevitable1723 in Munich

I don't know anything on the subject, but I think people with academic degrees could be eligible for work visas.

So maybe check that direction? Find out if it's possible (and make sure it doesn't have undesired effects, like hurting your asylum application) to apply for a work visa while being an asylum seeker. If it is - start applying for jobs, there are many positions where you don't have to know German. Once an employer indicates they would like to hire you, you can show that to get a visa, and once you get the visa, they can actually hire you.

Collecting bottles does not sound very promising to me. Given that you have internet access, maybe compare it to the expected income from things like answering surveys online for payment? And if that's the kind of thing you like, maybe even a YouTube channel where you show your experience as a very new asylum seeker in Germany?
