I am actively looking for work in Deutschland! I am primarily interested in Home Office roles. I am also interested in onsite roles that located in Bad Segeberg, Scheswig-Holstein, Deutschland and Kiel, Scheswig-Holstein, Deutschland, and Hamburg, Deustchland.
I am moving to Bad Segeberg, Scheswig-Holstein, Deutschland on April 25th, 2025.
I have some college education and professional experience and was previously CompTIA A+ certified for roles in information technology. My skillset is primarily tuned towards roles involving system administration and especially application support for end users as I am very friendly, but I am quite teachable and therefore am capable of learning new skills.
Please share this and feel free to solicit me for my resume if you have work you think I might be a good fit for! I am also open to Dual Study Progams/Duales Studium!
"As Florida officials enable Trump’s mass deportation policies, lawmakers in the state are looking to children to take on some of the jobs that have typically been done by immigrants.
Making its way through the state Senate is a new law, Senate Bill 918, that aims to loosen child labor laws and allow teenagers to work overnight shifts."

It was bound to come to an end. After 5 days in the Netherlands, I must return to France. FR is my home but there's something about NL that just clicks.
Maybe it's because I'm a New Amsterdamer (i.e. New Yorker). Maybe because one of my dearest friends lives here, and I've made more friends every time I've visited. Maybe the grass is always greener... But my heart is here more and more...
What did they say again about where home is?

"After her husband was unexpectedly detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement during a routine check-in, a Fountain Valley woman became a single mother overnight and worries the father of her toddler may be removed from the U.S."
"A lack of housing stock and the return of international students has driven one of the largest run-ups in asking rents on record.
Across Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Perth, asking rents have increased by at least 40 per cent."
Gee, I guess #immigration does have an effect on my rent after all & it isn't an exception to the market forces of supply & demand! An added extra to layoffs by companies as they employed cheaper immigrant workers.
“He took information that was publicly available but labor-intensive to compile, and did something nobody else was doing...I don’t know if he expected this second career to make him basically the world’s only credible public source on U.S. deportation flights, just as they were becoming part of one of the United States’ biggest national news stories.”

This is the same disgusting enjoyment of unlimited power as in all totalitarian regimes.
However, I still remember the execution of the Ceausescu couple and of Somosa.
The wind can change in a flash. Trump may yet regret his enthusiasm for the gun lobby.
*IF* there can be a sudden outbreak of civil war in a country, then it is where everyone is armed by default.
Das ist derselbe widerliche Genuss an der eigenen unbegrenzten Macht wie in allen totalitären Regimen.
Ich erinnere mich aber noch gut an die Hinrichtung des Ehepaares Ceausescu und auch an die Somosas.
Ruckzuck kann sich der Wind drehen. Trump könnte seine Waffenlobbybegeisterung noch bereuen.
WENN es in einem Land zu einem plötzlichen Ausbruch eines Bürgerkriegs kommen kann, dann dort, wo alle von Haus aus bewaffnet sind.

The Rise of David Levinsky, by Abraham Cahan, 1917, is a great, free book on gutenberg.org about the early twentieth American #jewish #immigrant experience. I can totally see one or more of my great grandparents reading it back in the day.

Swedish journalists excel at portraying the victims of immigration crackdowns in other countries – but domestic coverage leaves a lot to be desired, The Local’s Paul O’Mahony argues.
Holy shit
#DeSantis admits that the #WorkerShortages created by anti-#immigrant laws need to be eased by putting teenagers to work by relaxing #ChildLabor protection standards.

Today in Labor History March 25, 1911: Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire in New York City killed 146 people, mostly immigrant women and young girls who were working in sweatshop conditions. As tragic as this fire was for poor, working class women, over 100 workers died on the job each day in the U.S. in 1911. What was most significant was that this tragedy became a flash point for worker safety and public awareness of sweatshop conditions.
The Triangle workers had to work from 7:00 am until 8:00 pm, seven days a week. The work was almost non-stop. They got one break per day (30 minutes for lunch). For this they earned only $6.00 per week. In some cases, they had to provide their own needles and thread. Furthermore, the bosses locked the women inside the building to minimize time lost to bathroom breaks.
A year prior to the fire, 20,000 garment workers walked off the job at 500 clothing factories in New York to protest the deplorable working conditions. They demanded a 20% raise, 52-hour work week and overtime pay. Over 70 smaller companies conceded to the union’s demands within the first 48 hours of the strike. However, the bosses at Triangle formed an employers’ association with the owners of the other large factories. Soon after, strike leaders were arrested. Some were fined. Others were sent to labor camps. They also used armed thugs to beat up and intimidate strikers. By the end of the month, almost all of the smaller factories had conceded to the union. By February, 1910, the strike was finally settled.
