What’s up with people dressing like hobos for work?
Especially in the summer. I have seen a girl wearing shorts, a tank top and.. Havaianas flip-flops.
I mean, coming into the office no matter how laid back is with some cheap butt short pants showing off your whole pack of cellulite sweating on the office chair, your bra straps under your cheap tank top and dirty feet is.. acceptable? Eventually we see some cheap butt tattoos showing off as well.
It looks filthy.
Oh God, at my first job here there was a woman who'd come into the office with a tiny tabk top and unshaved armpits. Like ok, I can't force you to shave or be a normal 21st century woman but at least don't come in and raise your arms all the time. It was so gross.
Having a job is having a salary, right?
No matter how little, there are always cheap options for decency. Style is an attitude, not a price tag.
For summer, a pair of sandals and a flowy dress would do the trick: Comfortable, airy, decent.
Even Humana has some options.
But no, they seem to be at their filthiest like it’s a badge of price and honour.
I have a german acquaintance - he has been unemployed in Germany for 10 years, constantly complains about Germany but refuses to live abroad to get another job. GERMANS are messed up and totally incapable of living among normal societies outside of Germany. Leave and let them rot in their misery.
It was eye opening for me to speak to people from the GDR who complain about how there are no jobs in Mecklenburg Vorpommern now. 30 years after the wall fell they're still complaining about how mismanaged east German companies went bankrupt or were sold off. Still pretending GDR brands like Rottkaepchen were so great and the other brands that disappeared were just the victims of western arrogance. Ronny, I have a secret for you. When you can no longer legally pay people the equivalent of 80 euros a month to run machines you have to file for bankruptcy. Maybe instead of cooking up conspiracy theories about how the poor GDR with its massive civilian informant system and state sponsored Zersetzung you could just try moving 200 km to another pooping German town full of pooping German people that at least HAS JOBS.
I wish there'd been a version of the Nuremberg Trials for Stasis. It's so messed up that these fuckers get free money for the rest of their pathetic lives. My only hope is that they were all exposed to ubiquitous GDR asbestos and won't live to be very old.
These people are too afraid to to move to another country. Deep down they know they are poop and cannot make it there.
Its also interesting to see the extent of nostalgia for the former GDR. Everything that glamourises the Third Reich is forbidden, not so for the second dictatorship within a decade. Why?
How many krauts does it take to change a light-bulb.
One efficient Germans who must first study the manual, one to find someone with three years experience in changing lightbulbs, one to delegate to the lightbulb changer, one to check his/her/its credentials, and one to write a report on how the light bulb was changed to meet the high German standards that match those of the BER airport and one to explain to all the Germans why a lightbulb jokes about a team of Germans needed to change a lightbulb, is funny.
I used to think Germany was a tragedy, but now I realize it's a comedy.
I’ve never had a problem with dating. Lived in other cities and were complimented on my looks and felt fairly confident about myself. Now I’m in Berlin and my self esteem has dropped to its lowest. Part of the problem is that I’m “only” half white which automatically makes me a second class citizen here in many aspects. I AM A SMART EDUCATED PERSON FROM A DEVELOPED COUNTRY AND NOT INTERESTED IN GETTING PITY sexual act FROM GROSS GERMAN MEN.
I think you'll find that any male with a brain in his head will stay clear of women these days because they are brainwashed with s much Feminist BS, they don't know up from down anymore. I've never been happier since going MGTOW. Oh, and stop playing the race/skin card, it's boring.
Why do you even care if someone is gay/trannie? Why the hate?
Are you concerned, confused by your own sexuality or something?
If you are a straight, confident hetero, you’d not need to hate on someone who is different that’s not your niche or interest.
Mind your own darn business and stop hating like a brainless ogre.
This is the problem here. People think you have to be in a certain pattern. Either cool, techno, druggie, gay, not gay, capitalist hater... like this, like that, blabla.
No. Be whoever you are, have the ideas and values that fit you, be attracted to whoever you are (and bless you, hope it’s mutual and find happiness).
The bottom line is: Be a nice, decent human being that is not hindering others and life will be fine. It’s short anyway, why the hate?
Saw a mindless bicyclist (a grown-ass man, not a little 12 year old that bikes were made for) throw a tantrum during my lunch break. He was riding down a one-way street in the wrong direction and a car turned into that street and sort of cut him off. He completely flipped out and started yelling and screaming like a little kid. What a stupid nation of idiots.
One time I was in an Aldi, or REWE etc, and bought a snack bar and ate it, I still had the packet in my hand when I asked a young worker where a product was displayed and he said "you shouldn't have eaten that snack bar",
"why not",
"because you haven't paid for it"
"but I have the wrapper with the bar code to take to the cashier".
"I could call the police on you"
"Please do I said, because they'll be very pisssed off with you for wasting their time".
"OK, I won't do anything about it this time".
"what do you mean, there is nothing to do anything about"
He knew he was beaten and wimped away like a good little mindless German.
They love to find a way to phuck people's days up. Putrid scum.
The only thing Germans are more scared of than breaking the rules is asking someone to make a minor exception to dumb rules. That's why these idiots prefer pissing in the street to simply asking to use the bathroom at a bar. The most timid idiots on earth.
I could have waited to eat, but I WANTED to eat then and there, what's your problem with that retard. I wasn't stealing anything, I had a small snack, do you really think that is such a bad thing. You are obviously a Heinze or Heiko, you dumb stupid German khunt.
I have to second that. Honestly, a grown person who cannot wait until the checkout to have a snack? This is a behaviour that I would expect from children. And even then I would think that their parents should have taught them. Are you from some idiot country where such a behaviour is normal? And then throwing a tantrum here? Seriously?
I don’t agree with that behaviour either, but the “call the police on you” is a bit extreme.
Also the goodwill of not “doing anything for now”, show exactly how these Krauts like to see themselves in the Superior position.
Thank you, kind Sir! For your mercy.
But Ja, that’s not cool on so many levels these days. First, how did you consume something in a supermarket? Shouldn’t you have a mask on?
At REWE today. Went to check out line and then this couple appear right behind me. Guy look like he works out at the gym eight hours a day. His female dog look like she go to the beauty salon, plastic surgeon and Botox on a daily basics. I say, move back please you to close. He begins talking poop in German which half I can’t understand. He actually tries to immediate me with (no joke) his muscles. That actually made me angrier and a full blowout happen in the store. I ask the Turkish/German guy at the register to do something about this. He says what’s the problem and then I say airhead and his female dog are to close don’t you see? The guy at the register literally didn’t give a poop and sided with the airheads. They all just started acting like I was over reacting . The whole scene was surreal only in Germany can supermarket workers at like this without being fired. Since I was the foreigner they all protected each other and pretended I was acting out. I took my poop and gave them all dirty looks and left. This country is the unbelievable! Germans are freaking racist to the bone! Germans will always side with Germans regardless of the situation. The guy with the muscles I gave to shits about him being big. I was to pop his muscles and his female dog fake breasts. I just freaking hate this racist place. These people are just vile and freaking disgusting. And that’s not a opinion but a fact. I hope the Spanish flu come back and destroy this poop hole
I once was yelled at and threatened with violence at the cash desk by a crack-head Germ (I am a female), I was just standing in the line minding my own business when he threw my purchase away from the rolling band (I think he was a junkie who was so aggressive because he was having withdrawal syndrome). NO people in the line said anything, they all cast their eyes towards the floor and pretend to not hear or see anything. The cashiers, however, (both female, btw) had a sort of a smirk on their faces, like they were approving oh him belittling an Ausländer. You know what, those fuckers can't be helped. They are nazis and racist and hate anyone and everyone foreign (except for Americans, they kiss their butts any time of day and night in the hope of leaving this idiot for the states).
It's not you, it's them.
It seems like everyone here has forgotten about social distancing. Went shopping yesterday and noticed they've removed the stickers on the floor. Also noticed none of the employees wore masks. German Vorbild my ass. Also I remember at the beginning of this whole thing on the Berlin reddit some guy said he got beat up in a supermarket for wearing a mask (foreigner of course). Nazis will always be nazis. Germans never change.
I remember being shouted at by a cashier because my German wasn't good enough (not that I wasn't trying) and the people behind me in the queue smirking or laughing at me. A fellow expat once told me that these sorts of people love watching others suffer. I suppose it's true.
Job title: Operations Analyst m/f/d

Requirements: 2 years relevant experience.
What the hell is this even?
here they wont let you do anything until you are 'qualified' but the stupidest thing is you learn everything on the job anyway so no amount of training or studying is going to make any difference. they just hold people back making them do menial tasks forever til they can no longer think for themselves. was für eine scheiße
Sounds about right! You need Three years Training just to scope ice cream. Three years to be a certified janitor. Three years training to work at a register. Three training to work at a ( hotel school) hotel, lol. Three years training to be a certified German butt wiper!!!!! The job market is a freaking joke.
Seems everyone in Berlin is growing tired of the covid regulations. Out for lunch today and people are crowding together with strangers again, not wearing masks, all that. Sick of seeing how Germany is the world's role model when it's obvious people here dgaf.
Berlin homosexual starter pack
-they/them
-I’m poor
-lgbt only exist in Berlin that’s why I’m here
-I have same haircut as all my friends
-poly
-I go to clubs
-make art
-no other personality to note
Honestly, I can't stand Berlin. BUT - I also have to offer an alternative perspective. I keep meeting Russians who endlessly complain about Germany. They go on and on about how they can't find a good job here, can't find a good man, can't find friends, don't have any perspectives. I understand. But you know what? I didn't like it where I lived and therefore I LEFT. What's the point of living YEARS in a country that you hate? Seriously.
had you had as ridiculous requirements to be even just let into another country as us, you would have shut up right freaking now, you stupid dumbfuck. Do you have ANY freaking idea how hard it is for us? And then once you have fulfilled all those insane requirements, achieved the unachievable in terms of education, foreign language speaking ability etc. it's kinda HARD to just throw away smth you have worked SO INSANELY HARD to achieve. That's why we are reluctant to leave this idiot even after realising it is a shithole, you stupid overprivileged prick. So yeah, bitch, everyone is equal, but some (you, apparently) are more equal than others. So check your privilege, asshole.
@OP
I think a lot of foreigners feel stuck here. I personally knew people from Italy, Iran, Syria, Russia and Spain who hated it here but felt trapped because they had worked so hard to get as far as they had gotten in Germany and didn't want to give up. This, despite the fact that they all realise that living in Germany isn't so great.
@ Russian commentator
That's the reason I stayed in Germany as long as I did. I had worked my butt off to try and aquire a reasonable level of the language, as well as getting set up (an apartment, teaching certification, job applications etc). I stayed on because I didn't want all this effort to go to waste. In the end, severe mental health issues drove me away.
from the Russian commenter: same here; in the end, all I got was depressed; lost all my health, my time, my love of life, and my vitality; I don't want anything anymore and I cannot enjoy life, although objectively now it is better than it used to be;
I feel for you, mate; don't lose hope; never give up
To the Russian female genitals - you don't have to insult people. I understand that it's hard for you. I also understand that it sucks here. Stop with your insults and your bitchiness. Do you know how many people are in the same situation as you? I still don't want to hear any more Russians complaining about everything, portraying themselves as some kind of misunderstood geniuses, and bothering other people with their life stories.
to the phallace face hating on Russians: watch this, bitch

@ Russian commentator
I wrote the fourth response to the original comment. Welcome! I'm from Western Australia myself. I lived in Germany last year and I have to say that life there came as a big shock to me. I had good times and bad times but decided to get out in the end. I have spent some time in Russia and liked it very much, and enjoy meeting Russians. I am sorry to say that my Russian isn't so good. Thanks for your well wishes earlier in this thread. I began to feel better a couple of months after leaving Germany and returning to Australia. No doubt it has plenty of issues but I think I know where I'd prefer to be.
Look at the big picture, somehow you ended up here because you believed that some stuff sucked where you were before. Harsh truth that we all should all realize is how the entire planet sucks and for god’s sake don’t reproduce like it is a must. The only positive aspect of living here is assuring that being a family is so overrated, for those who are not planing about leeching on the welfare state
I do work in global corporate company. I don’t have to interact with Germans %90 of time but %10 I have to because there are some projects which Germany location is included.
Global roll outs never work in Germany because the Betriebsrat (working council) must be included each time. Why? Because one German is concerned about his / her privacy at work. The rest of the world works in harmony but Germany can’t.
Also Germans are unable to work in global environment/projects. They bad mouth about some other people who are also working in project. I mean things like X is lazy or Y was crying like a baby( I am not kidding) to complete a task etc These things can lead to HR case in any other country but in this place these just laughed at.
They also can’t understand things quickly like If something needs to be done in agile way, we spend weeks to explain things to our German colleagues. Afterwards concept of agility disappears.
Since I started to work here, I understand why this country is following technology like a decade behind. They can’t adapt to changes and they don’t want to advance in their life.
