Just put it in Svalbard and then make the entrance to the government building be guarded by polar bears.

It's probably one of those fake towns where the nature is really pretty, but only children and old people live there and the only establishment in the town is a gas station and a Joker housed in an ugly concrete building.

An eerily precise description of "Norges vakreste sted", Reine, except it's only a Circle K not a Joker.

I'm still not entirely sure where to look for current travel recommendations in Sweden. I thought there was an advisory against travel to any other country in place until June?

But anyways, there's no travel allowed into Norway as far as I've understood and even Høyre have proposed a law to ban all incoming travel until 2021 unless I've missed something? And to be honest, a lot of Norwegians have been complaining about not being allowed to their cabins in Sweden. You know.... pandemic but people think "min hytte.... andre får dra på hytta!!!"

Drunk Norwegians are absolutely a thing in northern Jutland. They arrive by the ferry from Oslo and get super drunk on inexpensive beer.

I just know that in the next election. The right wing will win major points by criticizing how Löfven handled the pandemic. Even though they would probably have done the same, minus any support for workers staying home sick.

Support? Also I'm a loving commie and I think Lofven should have fired Tegnell into the sun.

The reverse is true here, they're already hammering Frederiksen for overreacting and would absolutely have let more people die.

Zzulu posted:Apparently all of Scandinavia has tales of The Swede yet I never hear anything about danes I'm a Norwegian. And the company I used to work with got bought up by Danish investors. It was a huge culture shock for us. We were used to having a flat hierarchy at my workplace, with a friendly and casual tone between workers, leaders and bosses. But the Danes would not have any of this. As a Union representant I found myself in the thick of things as the Danish owners fought with us to restructure the company into a micro managed hell hole. I knew things was about get real bad when in the first meeting between the union and the new leadership, the HR-lady told us "nu må du lige slappe af, det er ingen her som skal pule hinanden i røven!"** Yet, that is exactly what they did to us. They quickly set up a strict hierarchy where the aim was to maximize production and to get rid of so called "slow-performers". Unfair production quotas, fingerprint sensors you had to use every time you left your workstation and a constant pressure for overtime became the norm. They seemed completely incredulous when we explained to them they cannot just step all over the workers like this, the union has to be consulted at every turn. What followed was 3 years of almost constant conflict between the new owners and the union. People were getting sick left and right from the insane pressure and stress put upon them. At one point we had about 15% of the employees on sick leave. Things got even worse from there, and the company, who had been around since the early 90s went bankrupt after about 3.5 year under Danish leadership. 100 people going into the Covid-19 lockdown without a job. Ugh. Worst 3.5 years of my life. TL/DR: Based on my personal experience Danes do not play nice, and workers rights are apparently optional to them **Translation: "Aint nobody gonna gently caress each other in the rear end here" GyverMac fucked around with this message at 10:40 on May 22, 2020 |
