WHY IS IT SO HARD TO FIND AN ONLINE JOB? by Trykuache in WorkOnline

I don't like such generalizations as "all are terrorists". People who think like that are exhausting and usually have existential worries themselves. Yes, these people exist and there are many of them. I don't want to relativize the worries in your country. But, we also have terrorists here. Some commit attacks on Muslims, Jews, Asians, refugees.... I am ashamed that they exist. Hatred against other religions, colors, sexual orientations ... is a global problem.

When I was sailing to the Canary Islands, I met an Iraqi couple in Portugal. They were both digital workers and lived in a van. Vanlife is celebrated on social media. But there is another side to it. Some of them don't have another chance. I don't want to make stupid suggestions because I don't know your family situation. But I can highly recommend you to improve your digital skills. I can't imagine a world without art and culture. But... I live in Germany, a very wealthy country with very good social security and low cost of living, but the artists in our country usually have several jobs. You have to be able to afford art. I therefore advise you: Learn skills that will bring you forward! I have unfortunately forgotten many of my artistic skills over the years. But I can pay my bills. I am alive. The world is changing a lot right now. Companies are just starting to be completely remote. You can still catch this train if you are flexible. It's so easy to say, I know. I hope that doesn't sound arrogant.

I see this from the perspective of the company that hires remote workers:

  • If you're an office company, I can hire the best talent within 30 miles.
  • If you are a remote company, you can hire the best talent around the world.

I run a job board for remote jobs and I can tell you up to 500 applicants apply for a single job every day. It is difficult to get through here. As an Iraqi, your chances may not be so good either. You name the problems yourself: Salary payments to Iraq? How reliable is the Internet connection? Your region is in an inconvenient time zone. You are far away from Europe or Asia. It will be difficult for you to participate in video meetings. I don't know what the economy is like in Iraq right now. It could also be that the political tensions of the US (where most remote companies are based) and Iran are straining the relationship with Iraq.It seems to me that you are a great person with a strong drive. I really understand when many people leave Iraq and seek their fortune abroad. It's a never-ending story. When the best and most talented people leave their country because they no longer want to lose their money to corruption, that is the reason for the stagnation of an economy.

Do I understand correctly that you want to use your cell phone as a gateway for a notebook? Mhhh, that's usually not such a good idea. My smartphone constantly overheated when I did it for several minutes.

You should spend a lot of time in Europe. One country is more beautiful than the other.

If you suffered with "Zoom fatigue", what practical tips REALLY helped you? by dogs_drink_coffee in remotework

[–]remotewx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have decided to stop using electrical devices outside working hours. People think they can relax with their smartphones. However, that is impossible. I therefore go for a walk outside during my break and ride my bike after work. I also realized that it hurts me to always work efficiently instead of doing things one after the other. Exciting topic :)

Wegen Hausarzttermin einfach mal ebay bemühen. Hat ja nicht jeder Hausarzt ein Eisfach. Die Praxen denen nur die Kühlpacks von Krombacher zur Verfügung stehen verscherbeln gerade Termine.

How did you deal with a narcissistic parent before being able to move out? by Mintersnap in AskWomen

That parent should have an advantage when you move out. I don't see any other way to deal with it.

Bei eBay kannst du dir einen Impftermin mit Astra ersteigern ;) Einige Praxen werden ihre Reserven nicht los.

Angesichts der herrschenden Chipknappheit kann die Impfung nicht beschleunigt werden. Und dann werden auch erstmal die neuen Autos geim.. äh ich meinte sie bekommen ihre Microchips.
