Wage a war !!! :thumbsup:

Indeed, sassyblue, what do you gain by having a conversation about garbage bags and Otto in Finland? Are you serious? Would you like to hear about daily shopping experiences in downtown Athens, which has become like a warzone lately? Yes, they use plastic bags, and they are free. And the garbage is thrown from 3rd floor balcony down in hope to have a direct hit on the rubbishbin below.
Tervetuloa in Finland, but when in Rome ...

It seems that it is you who is making it personal here and nobody else, why you feel the need to do that is beyond me though...
Maybe you won't post again for a while after yet another hangover from the night before, who knows, hopefully.
Care to explain why foreigners aren't allowed to discuss things on a forum made for foreigners living here??
I am not flaming here so save the insults, just be rational for a change. :wink:

Yes Hank chear up, I noticed it gets a little bit radical sometimes for the wrong reason (if she would be a an ultra left, everybody who does not agree fascist calling nobody, then I would agree :wink: ) I do not see much comments about the politicians in this country who do not seem to get enough salary (at least 6500 per month plus all kinds of tax-free benefits and then still need to be bought by companies) I call that an example of leeching from tax payers money, example the wine festival in the parliament etc.etc.etc.

It would take quite a few years on the welfare system for foreigners to cost the equivalent of raising a local.
Someone who comes, stays one year in schooling/welfare and after goes to work is quite cheap, from this POV.

You know, this is a forum. For foreigners. People write all kind of stuff, and I am sure that if the OP stays in Finland as long as some of the people here she won't have any need for those lists after certain time. But now she liked to do it, misses her home country, and though of sharing her experience with other expats. How can that be much wrong?

Anyone that is not getting the entertainment that they paid for when signing up for FF should ask their monies back. :D

I am foreigner and believe it or not, pay a shipload of taxes, do not know how a Kela office looks from the inside and speak Finnish. I agree to a certain limit with your anti-foreigner attitude(come from a country where it is better to be a foreigner(or refugee who goes every year to their home country on holiday, do not mean the real ones) then a hard working local who has to work for his house, television etc. . These so called left wing social communists run countries are run by pocket filling left talking and right pockets filling leechers. But this lady is just trying to make a living here and can be a contribution to finland.

Ok ok i get it now, Hank is just trolling again.
I can't even be bothered taking him seriously anymore cos he obviously is taking the piss.
Or if he isn't then he just has too much spare time on his hands.
Go do some work you nerd, or then go and watch some porn. :D

I dont think you can always compare countries cos they are all different, different cultures and different systems theres always something that you will prefer and dislike more in each. However, I fail to see the need for some of the remarks for such a trivial and light hearted topic really and it ended up totally off the OP point.

I don't know, Pursuivant, is everything OK with you? The OP's post certainly didn't warrant that kind of reaction.
