They want to live in that flat without contributing anything (rent, chores, etc).

When you reach a certain above rate (AT-außertariflich) pay level the contracts are a bit different. Your income is calculated by year and the contract states 40h work hours as standard and overtime already being passed for.

By law that (free) overtime is capped at 8h/week, so the work week is often in the 48h/week ball park. Any overtime above the 48 hours needs to be paid out or added to PTO.

In reality many employers consider 60+ hours / week as reasonable work schedule and won’t pay the 20+ extra hours since -according to contract- these hours have already been paid for.

Sometimes these are even billable hours, so your company earns good money from your work while they are lowering your hourly wage quite significantly.

People usually don’t ask for pay or return of that stolen life time. I know of this happening in rare-paid jobs as well, but I don’t know how wide spread it is.

And now comes Fotzenfritz trying to squeeze another million or two out of the poorest for his billionaire friend that are committing tax fraud by hundreds of millions yearly (on top of using mind-boggling loop holes to legally avoid hundreds of millions in die taxes).

Anyone who believes this shit should be forced to watch this: Wer liegt hier wem auf der Tasche? until they understand who is stealing our tax money.

I get the choice re the optics. Still I’d put a camel spider or a Sydney funnel-web spider on the right.

Good for them & very commendable. Having said that, the situations aren’t comparable, not even close.

I can guarantee you that there will be a much stronger reaction by the German team in case of civil war breaking out in Germany. There have been many statements against the new rise of Nazis by multiple teams in Germany.

What we are looking for is a statement against human rights violations in another country, especially the host. Since the next hosts are the Fascist States of America and Saudi Arabia there will be plenty of opportunity.

It’s still the most powerful statement by a football team that I am aware of, so there is that.

I wouldn’t mind something more powerful, like the abolishment of FIFA or straight up found an alternative organization.

Until that is happening I’m not gonna watch the World Cup, not buy merch and I’m not even going to wear the merch that I already own.

I might use my fixed vuvuzela to mess with people that are watching.

& the host quite likely committed a felony under German law.

Somewhere in Kazakhstan would be my guess.

TIL, thanks

Is that when they decided to make counting past 70 complicated?

One of the few genders German and French agree on is that a machine is female.

So, if a man is considered to be a machine he is female in that field.

Sorry, I don’t understand what I am seeing here. Is that someone xeeting a screenshot of someone reporting to Duolingo that penis should be feminine, not masculine in Spanish?

At least 30 years.

The problem is that public toilets need to be indestructible. The one near my home is constantly out of order because some asshole vandalized it. Restaurants, shops and delis only let customers use their restroom - probably for the same reason.

Why not offer a participation trophy called the ‚Noble Piece Prize‘? At his reading level he’ll not notice any difference and no one is going to tell him.

Re-read your original comment, m8. If you really didn’t want to condemn all hacking, then you did a good job stating the exact opposite.

It boils down to property tax as a means of preventing land accumulation and tax revenue generation.

I don’t see how that would have worked even when it was invented.

Right now you can see how the rich own all the land and have no need to use or sell it. This way they create a shortage and can charge a higher price for the land they use or sell. IMO the only way to break this up to stop charging property tax at all - because all land ownership goes back to the state. If someone wants to use land they rent it from the state. If they do not use or misuse rented land the land goes to a different renter (or to the state).
