So todays my Friday.

"Mit vier-Tage-Woche und Work-Life-Balance werden wir den Wohlstand unseres Landes nicht erhalten können." Mit dieser Aussage hat Bundeskanzler Merz beim CDU-Wirtschaftstag eine Debatte ausgelöst.
In einem Metallbau-Betrieb in Itzehoe wird seit rund anderthalb Jahren die Vier-Tage-Woche praktiziert. Die Arbeitszeit und das Gehalt sind aber gleichgeblieben.
Nach einer Woche Tagung mit der Firma im Atlantik, die wir in Räumen mit grandioser Aussicht über die Insel verbracht haben, geht es heute wieder zurück in die Schweiz.
Es war ein interessantes Erlebnis, aber ich glaube ich mag unsere Berge lieber!
Another Saturday, another coffee and another blog post. Let's talk about the meaning of the places were we live, work and collaborate? Maybe we could share and learn something.
22:20 Uhr: Ich bin gerade bei der Zubereitung des Abendessens, als eine Mail aus einem kooperierenden Museum reinkommt...

Tuesday's papers: Beating the clock, old offices and pricey power
Helsingin Sanomat reports how one woman bent the rules to increase her chances of having a baby.
“Becoming more customer-oriented while allowing workplace morale to suffer is a poor and short-sighted strategy. Instead, customer and employee satisfaction should be seen as two sides of the same coin.
“A happier workforce is clearly associated with companies’ ability to deliver better customer satisfaction.”

Woke up from a deep sleep in panic as I dreamt about being late for work. Fortunately, I was already at work.

One of my chores yesterday was to get some new work shoes since the ones I bought just didn't fit right.
I decided not to go cheap. There's a local shoe umm *emporium* called
"Discount Shoes" with a ton of high quality name brands. Took me a minute just to find the right section. That kind of big.
Ended up spending a lot for two pair of shoes, a work pair and a not work pair, but they fit and hopefully they'll last.
Das ganze dumme Gerede zur Work-Life-Balance hat mich dann wenigstens zu einem lustigen Bildchen motiviert.

At work I generally play one of three things. '80s pop, old hair band rock, or Pink Floyd.
I decided to dig around my collection for something new and today I am sure as hell going to play classical music and it's so out of place. Think kind of like Beethoven's 5th at McDonald's it's kind of like that funny

A warm fuzzy from yesterday..
So I'm speaking Spanish with a client and we do our thing and they leave. The next person behind them is a wiry, thin, older, mountain looking kind of guy.
Where'd you learn how to do that?
What?
Speak Spanish that was cool
Oh I'm still learning but thank you
No really I don't think I could make those noises with my mouth that was pretty neat.
Schlecht geschlafen und dann quatscht mich eine Kollegin auf dem Weg ins Büro ungefragt mit ihren Kindern voll. Schlechter kann ein Montag nicht starten
I told my manager yesterday that my soul is tired and I need a break.
Schedule came out today and she borrowed an employee from another store so I could have a 3 day weekend starting tomorrow
The people make a difference.
@der_kleine_herr_b Ich finde 1 Tag Arbeit pro Woche wäre echt ausbalanciert.... Muss man halt interpretieren können :D
(Nein, nicht ernst gemeint)
