Office work is not “Jew daycare”, it’s more like an Israeli prison camp where the guards rape you, or trench warfare

People always talk about office jobs being feminine. But if you work in globohomo you know that higher management people are usually literal navy seals combat veterans. They're complete psychopaths who put you on a strict 4HL prison regimen. Maybe an office job is feminine in the sense that it is about being completely dominated by these guys

Today’s metropolitan white-collar professional is really just a Restaurant Caste. No one really earns enough to distinguish themselves from a service worker in social housing except with their ability to endlessly eat out, order in, and spend money at randomly generated events.

A situation that happens multiple times a day: you’re chatting with your Dutch coworkers. An expat (who only speaks English) starts sitting with you. Out of politeness the conversation switches to English as well, even though the expat contributes nothing to the conversation.

Just to be clear - I don’t think this is a good thing. The Dutch have only themselves to blame - if the Germans can force their über-complicated language even on the lowest IQ foreign workers, so could the Dutch, but it’s just easier for them to switch to English. Now you end up in a situation where even in highly professional organizations entire departments have to work fully in English because of one or two foreign employees, not to mention that in Amsterdam a waiter addresses everyone by default in English. Entire universities are switching to English as their primary language. This is all too much.

@erogncict It doesn’t even cross their mind, not even the expats who are supposedly trying to “learn Dutch”. It’s treated as a complete joke. After 3 years of living here they can only say “GOEJEMORHEH” in an exaggerated Dutch accent.

The problem is that Dutch people can only technically speak English well. But once the conversation switches from work to more personal related topics, it becomes actually really difficult to convey your actual feelings in English (“COZY”). The whole cadence of the convo changes

At our department Christmas potluck I’m talking with a Dutch colleague. We talk about women, dating, hinge, run clubs. Our Indian coworker joins us and sits next to us.

Reporter: Why didn’t you inform allies before attacking Iran?
Trump: We wanted surprise—who knows better about surprise than Japan? Why didn’t you tell me about Pearl Harbor?

@hendrikotten3 En Peter Wennink maar met krokodillentranen op alle dee pee gee mediakanaaltjes roepen dat we zo'n GI-GAN-TISCH tekort hebben aan technische mensen...

@hendrikotten3 ASML heeft zich nou niet bepaald netjes gedragen afgelopen jaren Henk. In 2021-2022 met alle geweld duizenden expats naar NL halen, vervolgens hebben ze al sinds 2023 een 'hiring freeze' en kunnen de slimste NLse natuur- en wiskundestudenten niet aan een baan komen.

De nieuwe Franse CEO van ASML ontslaat duizenden Nederlandse vergadertijgers en nu gaat ook de nieuwe Deense CEO van Jumbo fors snijden in het achterhaalde Nederlandse vergader-circus dat alles vertraagt. Wanneer dringt dit besef eens door in Den Haag? fd.nl/bedrijfsleven/…

@DefensieMin Maar misschien dat er dalijk wel ineens een gehaaide logistieke inkoper van defensie komt voorrijden in een gloednieuwe SVAutobiography Range Rover? Dat zou een hoop verklaren!

@DefensieMin Dilan je moet even kritisch kijken naar de recente order Iveco trucks. Die Scania’s zijn echt uitstekende auto’s (inb4 muh 2 cm te hoog) en geproduceerd in NL… en nu gaan jullie overstappen op Italiaanse rommel. Onbegrijpelijk.

Samen met andere landen, zoals Finland en het VK, gaan we samen defensiemateriaal inkopen. Dat is slimmer en goedkoper. Daarom werken we aan een ‘multilateraal defensiemechanisme’: afspraken tussen landen om samen makkelijker en sneller materieel te kopen.gov.uk/government/new…

If you still think hot women are driving Fiat 500s you’re making it abundantly clear to all of us you haven’t driven in a long time. All the sexy late 20s/early 30s girlbosses are all driving pic related. The Fiat 500 nowadays is exclusively driven by geriatrics and homosexuals

@Mileage_impo The TDV6 engines (ESPECIALLY the 2.7L ones) are considered the most unreliable RR engine in recent history, but all of the RRs reaching high mileage seem to have this exact engine. Lesson in there. (Inb4 someone posts the airplane infographic)
