It'd worse than things like Temu. With that you just know you're buying cheap knockoffs with let's say questionable quality. On Amazon, you don't know what quality you're getting, for a worse price, and even worse delivery times (my last purchase from Amazon took 2 months to deliver. For a book!).

Knowing how to swim. Basic life skill in a water-rich country, but many expats can't.

I can't even compare wages with my partner if we have to go by monthly rate.

I get paid per month, but in May I get an 8% bonus, so my monthly payment is not the same throughout the year. Then my partner gets paid every 4 weeks, and receives bonuses based on company performance in those 4 weeks. So every payment is different.

Per annum is the only way we can compare our salaries. And that's in the same country. Now try international, and it'll really difficult otherwise soon.

I live in the Netherlands.

Or accept that you need to train people on the job.

Je hebt gelijk. Het leest wel heel onnatuurlijk.

Het dédain van de overheid jegens de burger is echt buiten alle proporties. Wat is er toch met Nederland aan de hand?

De man heeft bij Shell gewerkt. Als er iemand NIET geschikt is voor een klimaatrol is hij het wel. Ronduit belachelijk dit.

Kan de commissie dit nog tegenhouden of is het eigenlijk een voldongen feit?

Wat hebben de Amerikanen hier in godesnaam mee te maken? Fuck dat sanctiedreigement.

Ook, wat een hoeveelheid taalfouten in het artikel. "Op de dag dat het kabinet besluiten", wat?

Depreciation and tax and insurance is mostly a sunk cost. Once you have a car, these are mostly irrelevant when comparing to public transport.

I'd like to exit Google, but Gmail makes this oh so hard. I've been using Gmail since over 20 years, basically my life is on that service. How did you migrate off Gmail?

Hmm, dat zou nog wel eens goed kunnen. Wel jammer.
