Hi, I live with my parents, am 26 years old and have been employed for 6 months after completing 2 of my apprenticeships (but limited until June 2025). If I resign at the end of April, what financial benefits can I claim? I want to take a year off from work to take care of…
…who worked for one employer for five years, was passed around between departments like a hot potato, was at risk of bore-out for two and a half years (because there was nothing, and no, really: NOTHING) to do, who had to beg for tasks and then got ones where the mistakes were looked for with…

Hey, I'm 13 now, but I'll be 14 soon, and I wanted to research online whether it's possible to work as a lifeguard or something similar at that age. The only information I found online was that you can get a bronze lifeguard certificate at 12. All the jobs I found required a minimum age…
Hi, I wonder why it seems like employers don't want to hire newly qualified people anymore.

Does one day really make a difference? Before I get any more theoretical, let me tell you what happened: I'm currently on…
If any of you hold a leadership position, can you please tell me how companies handle this? LIDL had to pay a 1.5 million fine. But what about other companies? For example, in logistics.
I'm 17 and currently doing my student internship at a pharmacy. One of the employees criticizes me constantly. Now, after three weeks, she suddenly told me not to come in wearing sweatpants because it looks bad and unprofessional. I understand that. Some people might think it's "too comfortable" for work, whatever that means. But I…
Hello everyone, I've been working in the tax administration for three years, and I'm extremely dissatisfied with my professional situation. (Professional qualification: tax administrator) There are no opportunities for advancement, the salary isn't satisfactory, I work a 41-hour week, I'm basically working for two people (due to staff shortages), and I don't like the job….
