  • I work at a shelter for young people (12-17yo) who can’t live at home. They only stay temporarily with us, until there is another instance found.

    I really like getting to meet a lot of people, lots of destinies. I work in a great team with a great boss. We have lots of free time in our work hours, because they’re still youthsters, so they meet friends, meet family, etc.

    We work shifts, which means sometimes I have to work on weekends, on holidays (not my vacations tho). Also sometimes the kids are not very easy. Sometimes they are the reason they can’t stay at home because they are aggressive, they take drugs at 14yo, they are criminals.










  • In Germany, driving with a manual is pretty standard. Although I did a special driving license (B197) which allows you to learn driving on a manual for 10 lessons and then switch to automatic for the rest of the course and the driving exam while still being allowed to drive a manual. It’s pretty new tho. I did it because I really sucked at shifting. I now drive a manual and I’d say I’m okay with it although I’d really prefer an automatic.

    I’m just gonna tell you what happens when pure capitalism would exist in a country.

    There would be no taxes. That sounds alright, but listen: Everything is on a market. Healthcare, education, everything. There is competition for everything. That means companies will have to do stuff to win you as a customer. One big company in every industry sector will win and buy all the other companies that have gone bankrupt. Then, we have monopolies and the big companies can raise their prices however they want and control us in every way they want.
