GABA ghoul posted:It was a joke, op. A light hearted Schabernack about fat cat verbeamtete Lehrer It's a light hearted Schabernack because it's essentially true. I did a calculation in the happy Vorcoronazeit. Edit: I remembered it wrong! The Lehrernetto only comes up to 85k Angestelltenbrutto (which comes to the upper 10% of Angestellte). To earn 45k netto (adjusted from originally 54k, see Edit above) netto as a verbeamteter Gymnasiallehrer you need to chose the right Bundesland (BaWü, BY, NRW) and not be fired for 10 years until you automatically get a high enough Erfahrungsstufe to earn 4.5k netto a month (when you' be ~37 y/o). If you aren't allergic to the smallest bit of responsibility, like being a Oberstufenleiter, you can get promoted to A15, but these slots rarely open for obvious reasons. For mediocre people without leadership skills or entrepreneurial spirit being a verbeamteter Lehrer at the Gymnasium is the mother lode. Doesn't mean every verbeamteter Lehrer is a lazy gold digger, only that the incentive to attract that kind of personality certainly is there. Pensionwise a verbeamteter Gymnasiallehrer in the right Bundesland will retire after 40 years with a monthly pension of ~3200€. If you had worked for 45 years and earned 100k right off the bat you'd have earned enough entgeltpunkte to be entitled to 2300-2500€ (depending on the cap for maximale Entgeltpunkte during your working years). If the glorious revolution ever comes, please reward verbeamtete teachers for sucking dry the working classes (and everybody else) for decades.

Goddammit. Even the brand-new Frauenkampftag in Berlin fell on a Sunday this year round. But eh, home office. Probably saved a couple month's worth of time by not commuting.

DTurtle posted:I was wondering why the radio wasn‘t playing the normal morning program and was planning on going to the grocery store today until I remembered that. The job is important. But it's not exactly rocket science, i.e. it's not too difficult to recruit people with the right skill set. The brutto pay is adequate, but as the Beitragssatzentwicklung/Sozialabgaben has been steadily increasing from ~25 to 40% of Bruttolohn during the last 50 years, Beamte have been mostly exempted from this. So I'm OK with Lehrer earning brutto what they earn. But they should contribute to the Solidargemeinschaft like every random Abteilungsleiter from company X and get the same Rente as everybody else in their pay grade. Lehrer being Beamte is an expression of their historical coziness with the old obrigkeitsstaatliche Eliten (as is the high pay/social standing for Gymnasiallehrer) and that is a Zopf we can get rid off. With a guillotine. Na, they should contribute more to social security. Einbauschrank fucked around with this message at 09:48 on May 1, 2020 |

I think Lehrer being Beamte has more to do with the historical fact that education in Germany was, for the longest time, 100% private and no-one gave a poo poo that everyone was as dumb as a brick. Until some clown in one of our ancient kingdoms was like "Wait a minute, this is bullshit! You're telling me none of those peasants can actually read those very important propaganda messages we've written for them?????" and then some teaching needed to be done. I'm of course joking, but I also remember reading about how random dude was a teacher in an 18th century village and was taking payment from the villagers for the privilege of teaching those kids at least something. Mostly because they were poor enough they had to sometimes pay in Naturalien, like coal for heating, which at the time sounded really strange to me.

I do not really know what agile means, but given by the fact that it is used excitedly by both our clients and our internal ~innovation~ people, I confidently believe it is utter garbage for everything but the specific kind of business from whence it originated. Although I try to keep an open mind and allow for the possibility that it is garbage for whatever kind of business it originated from as well. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

I think I made a semi-effort post about it before, but the tl;dr is that 95% of the people you encounter are the ones that drink the agile Kool-Aid and go around preaching the gently caress out of the "Scrum Bible", and if you verletz even the tiniest provision of ~THE AGILE FRAMEWORK~, you're "not agile" at all and doomed to fail. Probably 4% are people that will try to take the stuff that makes sense and apply it without fanatically screaming about holy scripture. The 1% are folks in software development, who generally don't scream about agile methods at all, because they're the ones for whom this poo poo has worked out fine forever and a day and they don't really give a poo poo about krampfhaftly trying to apply it to other sectors like the automotive industry and such. It's basically getting the Six Sigma treatment with a new-car-smell

Drone posted:In our new post-worklifebalance corona world, I've gotten like 12 work-related text messages on this, everybody's day off. Not at all. If I am working from home, my laptop + headset is connected to company telephone system and calls go through to my home office. Otherwise it goes to voicemail, exactly the way it works when in the office. I stay in touch with a couple of colleagues / research partners via my personal cell phone, but that's just to chat and catch up, anything work related is always done via email / office phone. I get an average of 1-2 work calls a year on my personal phone, and in every case the colleagues in question asked for permission beforehand to call in case something exceptional comes up while I'm on vacation.

A friend bailed out of a company that tried to solve its engineering problem by introducing lots of agile stuff (but not changing anything about the engineering). Basically they were a Mittelständler that needed to make a step up from the engineering practices the company had been using since its founding, the founder, a Tüftler, was retiring and his kid was a BWLer and felt the need to strengthen his authority by making the big decisions rather than let the Ingenieure shape the way the company worked. My buddy ofc is an engineer, so feel free to question this suspiciously tidy narrative, but eh.

Drone posted:In our new post-worklifebalance corona world, I've gotten like 12 work-related text messages on this, everybody's day off. Please reply to every text with a link to a YouTube video of the Internationale WFH week 8 here, nothing really has changed for me. Working for a IT Dienstleister, I'm fortunate to have an employer that tries to prevent me from doing overtime as much as possible. So if I'm not working, I'm not working. If a mail comes in at 16:31 it will be read the next day. All the communication is in Slack or analogues. No one except HR has my personal information so unless my coworkers are literally on fire, I have an ±8h window per day where I can be reached. In the last three years that has happened 0 times. That said, we currently have weekly status updates via a 15min video call and I have attended them this week while on vacation as well as once during a week of sick leave. It's not mandatory but informative. And I'll be extending my lunch a bit to equalize the time. I don't know your life or relationship to your employer but maybe try to set clearer boundaries with them. Maybe ignore all communication outside the defined hours. Make them supply you with a work phone and turn it off when you are done for today? Write up 15min of overtime for every text they make you read?

Agile is great. You can change the requirements every week and you even have a process for doing so. You change your scope one week and the little coding monkeys will scramble to hack away at their adorable LED-backlit tenkeyless keyboards and at the end of the week you've changed your mind and do it all again.

Re. Agile, what is spotify's model? Someone mentioned it upthread I currently work in software development using agile, and I have the luck of working in a project where it makes sense. Essentially it consists of a way of breaking down tasks into two- to four-week cycles (sprints), with clear prioritization of tasks. If something is too big to be done in a cycle, it should be broken down into smaller tasks. Requirements are specified in terms of what the expected results of the tasks are (eg. what the functionalities of a program should be). It is a good way of organizing work in the short-term. One focuses on what needs to be done, and one cannot get sidetracked. What it DOES NOT replace is long-term planning and software design. If one thinks that a project can be successful only through the ~magic of Agile~, you're screwed.

DTurtle posted:This is why there are never any complaints about bad teachers. This is why there are no people who remember that ONE teacher who was very good. Because it is simply a very simple job that anybody can do. There is no need to try to recruit the best people for the job, because there are simply so many out there who can do it properly anyway. It's enough to be OK at your job and most teachers are OK. After all, Lehrämtler aren't dumber than the average student. And I think their earnings are OK, too. If somethat on the high side in the OECD comparison and the results of in PISA, TIMSS etc. don't suggest we get "the very best" for our money, even though we pay more than most other countries. It's a typical job requiring an akademischer Grad and we suffer no shortage of people studying PoWi, history, geography, religionswissenschaften etc. They usually earn 30-35k after graduating with a master. So 50k brutto for a Lehrer is already ample money. And why don't they contribute to social security even though they are high earners? Why not pay more for good math teachers - who are in demand - and less for good English teachers, who should more common? And if good teachers are so important, perhaps it should be easier to fire the lackluster ones by getting rid of Beamtenstatus. Or is there a reason to be stuck with bad teachers?
