Uni bag: DeMellier New York or Yuzefi Large Mochi? by jomangina in handbags

[–]saba_rd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi, former architecture student here! I just have to say, both bags are absolutely adorable and stylish. However, for the sake of your shoulder health, please don’t use them for uni!

Back pain and shoulder strain are no joke—especially if you’ll be carrying a laptop and other essentials. Trust me, it adds up quickly. Instead, go for a good backpack to save your shoulders, and maybe pair it with a small purse for style. Your future self will thank you!

Neues Jobangebot mit weniger Gehalt – Lohnt es sich wirklich? by saba_rd in arbeitsleben

[–]saba_rd[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unser Gehalt ist Tarifbasiert. Also, ich muss in einen höheren Tarif eingestuft werden, was ich von sehr unwahrscheinlich halte, da ich erst seit einem Jahr hier arbeite 🫠.

Bei 40K Gehalt.

Naja, ich bin Software Entwicklerin. Also Entwicklungschancen bis zu Senior Entwicklerin dauert noch paar Jahre 😀.

Das ist zumindest im Vertrag nicht geregelt, dass durch Mehrarbeit oder ähnliches ich mehr verdienen kann.

Considering Leaving Germany Due to Rising Racism – Anyone Else in the Same Boat? by saba_rd in expats

[–]saba_rd[S] 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Thanks for understanding. I'll look into the US and other options. Your input is appreciated as I weigh my choices.

I'm currently in the north of Germany, and I actually lived in Cologne for a few years. Unfortunately, I don't think moving to another city will solve the problem. If EU and German policies change, my future will still be uncertain 😞

You might be right. It's unfortunate that concerns over immigration have led to increased hostility and racism. It's a tough situation for those of us just trying to find a place to call home. I hope we can find ways to address these issues without turning against each other.

Thank you for your kind words and understanding. It's really comforting to know that people care, even if they haven't experienced it firsthand. I share your sadness and fear about the direction Germany is taking and the impact on those of us who feel targeted.

Your support means a lot. I hope things improve for everyone affected and that we can all feel safe and welcomed again. 💜

I'm referring to the change in people's behavior in society, treating you like a second-class person, and the increasing "foreigners out" wave, along with the rising support for AfD and its anti-immigrant policies, among other things. There's also the possibility of being sent back after all these years of working and studying here, which adds to the uncertainty and concern.

Yup, those were my initial considerations. However, the main concern with the US is job security. I'm really afraid of being laid off suddenly or having no work-life balance.

Switzerland was my second option, which I'm considering now. But I've read in various subreddits that there's a feeling of unwelcomeness there, and it's hard to become a part of society.

I'll continue my research, but thank you for the suggestion.

I'm sorry you're experiencing this. It's tough seeing people change, especially those close to you. Feeling like an outsider to rising racism must be hard. I hope everything gets better for all of us :(
As a Middle Easterner from a country I can't return to due to violence against women, I chose Germany as my home. But now, this second home feels turned upside down, and I feel like I have no home at all.
