  • Boarding passes and check-in could be scrapped in air travel shake-up

  • That is funny.

  • What were you surprised to learn wasn't actually normal?

  • Children (humans) should always have access to clean water. That is not normal in the slightest. A time out shouldn't include torture.

  • Poor you! It must have been terribly frustrating that the doctor wouldn't take you seriously. Seems to be a frequent thing women go through in the medical world. Hope you're okay now.

  • It's an interesting story you shared. Seems like you've got it decently with your family. Happy to hear that!

    I agree that learning can and should be fun and stimulated.

    In the Netherlands we have the opposite problem actually, too many people have a higher education. Not enough practically schooled workers. We drastically need people to change to a "lower" education I'd we want to have plumbers, electricians, builders etc.

  • What is one moral you have that most people don't agree with?

    Jump

  • Veganism. It's interesting to see how even seemingly very moral people throw logic out the door when the topic turns to not killing animals.

  • I get it, you're not stupid. You've got the capabilities to think these things through. It's very nice to have these skills.

    Although I wasn't familiar with all the circumstances in BE, they seem better on average than in NL. That sounds great, because our countries' wealth is brittle and unequally divided.

    While I do agree it's sometimes a motivational issue (minority), I think that anyone working FTE should be able to live without uncertainty, living a modest life. Even if they have no desire to grow a career.

    In here that is not the case. No proper social housing system (it's a shell of the past), waiting times around 15 years for Randstad.

    Private sector rent of 1200-1500 is common. Many people cannot escape the wage slavery trap.

    Fun fact, even earning twice median here is no guarantee for stability.

    My point is, your view is definitely not universally applicable.

    Even in BE there will be circumstances where people cannot predict the outcomes. Poverty, drug addiction or mental disorders can happen anywhere on earth - and people do not choose for this to happen to them.

  • You're a real shortsighted person. Greetings from your northern cousins suffering from similar problems. Averages lie, statistics mean nothing to an average citizen.

    If half a country does well, and the other half is living in worse conditions every day, is that wealth?

    I'm in a good spot, but I am lucky to be there. Many others are not so lucky. Take off your blinders.

  • Same, only based on VTC do we get the returns. It's not the best platform, but what are you going to do expansion wise else?
