Matratzenchat: Der "Richtpreis" für eine richtig gute Matratze lag bei mir für 200x140cm bei ~500 Euro, jetzt seh ich Stiftung-Warentest Sieger für um die 300 Euro? Hat jemand zufällig so eine Bodyguard ANTI-KARTELL Matratze?

Ja. Ist definitiv nicht so bequem wie manche "Kartell" Matratzen (Röwa bspw.) aber für den Preis trotzdem gut.

Zur Langlebigkeit kann ich nicht viel sagen, hab die erst seit 6 Monaten.

Was nerven kann bei der Bodyguard ist der komische Bezug. Der ist extrem rutschig wodurch die Laken immer abgehen. Bei 140cm vielleicht nicht so extrem, ich hab 2 90er geholt da geht's schnell.

Bei Kleidung sollte man schon auf ethische und nachhaltige Standards achten. Wie man als Bewohner eines reichen Landes der ersten Welt bei Ausbeutershops wie H&M oder Primark kaufen kann, ist mir schleierhaft (noch schlimmer: Schuhe bei Zalando bestellen, leider ein Hobby der meisten Schweizer).

I'm not a teacher in Switzerland, I can't just walk into a shop and tell the shopkeeper to bring me his finest and most expensive wares. :shrug:

I just washed the Primark poo poo two times and yeah I don't think I'm gonna shop there again cause it isn't worth the trouble to have to deal with decontamination(oh yeah, also, the slavery issue)

Gonna report back with how it goes with the t-shirts(rashes, shrinking testicles, weird body changes, etc.) and maybe post some closeup pictures

The sad thing is that there's not really a good way to know which clothes are made without slavery. Just being expensive doesn't cut it.

Small shops often have some weird hippie clothes that claim to be made in Italy and that are barely more expensive than H&M, I've often wondered what's up with that.

Teacher salary for new hires in 2017 amounts to €5,000 (Secondary Schools) €4,400 (Primary Schools) according to the relevant teachers' union. (Berlin generally does not hire teachers as "Beamte" anymore, so those gross salaries are subject to the same withholdings as regular employees.)

I make nowhere near that, but then I’m just a Stellvertreter with a 50%-Pensum. Also, there are no Beamte in Switzerland :(

*looks in *.csv* Nice try, but IIRC you are a computer toucher and therefore part of the Mercantile MINT caste. :thermidor:

(Also, the real money is in becoming a teacher in a Land that still makes you a Beamte.)

Yeah, I agree with that. And even better: iirc, Berlin is one of the Länder that is allowed to only pay reduced wages to bad and/or unqualified teachers, so they only get what they ultimately contribute.

The Linke is a party I grudgingly accept exists, but I've learned enough about DDR-history I can't bring myself to trust a party that was once the SED, a party leading the corrupt state apparatus ...

It's probably more likely we see the strong arm of the market at work here, as I've read news talking about our Schulen needing more Lehrer, but apparently no-one wants to work as a teacher, so I expect salaries to continue to rise until the demand is met, followed by a swift crash back down.

You will find out that the idea to build a "cathedral of progress" right next to the cathedral of old came from a Sozialdemokrat. :hmmyes:
