  • I (a US citizen) literally didn’t get a job in Germany because one member on the team objected because I didn’t speak German yet. The company is “English first” and I worked in the US division previously. So yeah, Europeans are certainly as capable of being racist. And they didn’t even try to hide it!


  • I moved during the pandemic when we were all remote. But let’s pretend I went back to the office near where I used to live.

    I would expect it to be an inviting, colorful environment. Put effort into decorating . Give me an office with windows, and a door. Not a gray cube and off-white walls that feels like I’m going to die in it. Other incentives like a guaranteed parking spot would be fantastic. Maybe provide lunch. I think Google at least used to provide a great office environment.

    I would also want more money because transportation is very expensive now. And it takes time. That’s less time with my kids and to handle chores properly. Often cost saving chores.
