Schluss mit der eidgenössischen Wegelagerei!

Ex Mitarbeiter eines nicht benannten Mobilfunk anbieter hier.

Das Problem hier ist vermutlich nicht dein Anbieter sondern die Schweizer. Roaming ist einfach kaputt.

Der Schweizer Anbieter stellt dem deutschen das in Rechnung.

Es gab eine Zeit (vor EU Roaming zwang), da haben polnische und französische Betreiber Funkmasten direkt an die Grenze gestellt nur um Roaming zu kassieren. Kein Witz.

Und dann sitzt man in seinem Büro, zig Kilometer von jeglicher Grenze entfernt und bekommt die Meldung "Willkommen in Frankreich" auf den Diensthandy.

Das es bis heute keine Option gibt Roaming so einzustellen das nur kostenfreies Roaming funktioniert,daran ist dann Anbieter Schuld. Es wäre einfach in Backend so was zu machen. Wenn man will

Steam lawsuits in a nutshell

Hearing those arguments for how many years now? Right ...

The day Gabe is bo longer there things may get ugly, may.

But, Valve is not publicly traded, or has to cater to shareholders in any way. That is the reason they are still who they are.

Far-right leaders are winning across the globe. Blaming ‘the economy’ or ‘the left-behinds’ won’t cut it

Social media is to blame, at least in huge parts.

It offers a platform for unproven claims, and especially the short content formats are an issue:

You can not cover important topics fairly in those formats. Only populism can profit from it. And the far right does this.

We reached a point where people don't believe the published agendas of candidates and parties anymore. They only trust what the hear and see on social media.

Of course there are other factors, but this is an important one.

Timeless advice

Over here in Germany where everybody has at least 3 weeks paid time off (being ill does not count to this contingent btw), it is common that leaves are planned in the beginning of the year for larger vacations, so there are no collisions.

Also, if you have children you have priority during school breaks for paied leaves.

This concept could be copied by us employers also, I wonder why not? Maybe because this way you can pressure your employees with your vacation as leverage
