Hope this gives Fairphone plenty of new customers and allows them to start selling more globally.

You mean to work for public services? I am currently doing that and sadly might have ended up in one of the not-so-nice ones.

There are a lot of people here who have been here since forever and feel the need to exercise their authority everyday to the "new person" and see everything the new person does well as a threat to their own position.

But yeah it for sure is more relaxing than in private companies. Took a big paycut to work here because I thought it's better to feel less strained after work.

I've heard in general that public services are better as employers though!

That sounds quite nice! And you sound like a very nice manager.

This gives me a bit of hope, maybe someday I'll find such a job.

Thanks for sharing :)

Sorry for late reply!

You mean on sopuli's default web UI? This might be a lemmy-ui specific issue. If you'd like to address this I suggest https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues

Based on the README and that article, the founder sounds like he is deep into conspiracy theories and is an anti-vaccine MAGA person.

Not to downplay the problems on xorg and I am happy it's getting forked, but wtf is up with "No DEI" "Make X great again" in the README... Doesn't convince me at all that this project is going to stay intact and upkept on the long term.

Edit: added some words

Edit2: yeah okay, he's a complete nutjob and a shitty person. See link below

I was about to write down some stuff before I realized that every job I've had has been riddled with red flags and I don't think I actually know what a "nice" workplace is like.

I just apply to whatever I can get within my field and accepted that work is work. Don't know if I can ever find a place that I'd enjoy going to. I've had workplaces that I tolerate enough to stay the full day and work to get paid.

But I'm always happy for people who can say they found a job they actually enjoy! Maybe I'll accidentally bump into one of those some day.

Reminds me of Kiek in de Kök in Tallinn, Estonia

Yeah I found this meme bit misleading, but I also got a good chuckle out of it since this is very relevant to me.

I'm not a native English speaker but since I learned English earlier in life than German I still get confused about this in a real/fast conversations.

We've got !chinese@lemmy.world but unfortunately I'm not patient enough to learn it.

Maybe one day I'll try to learn a few sentences to impress my chinese colleagues!

My personal favourite (because it's more unique than the north arrow) is the windy road one. Really great work on that one!

[–] Lazycog@sopuli.xyz 2 points 2 months ago

Yeah I can imagine learning two languages of the same language family can be confusing! I struggle enough learning just one language lol

[–] Lazycog@sopuli.xyz 3 points 2 months ago (2 children)

That's quite an impressive list of languages to learn at the same time and incredible how you are making progress! Well done and keep going!!
