political squaw

oh I just remembered one more epic thing. Once applying for a job here in Greece I was told that I need a certain stamp on the translation-paper of my diploma. That stamp or apostille was established by a hague convention and can be entered in documents by a competent authority of the country in which the document was issued. So I was told without that stamp my diploma is worthless and therefore I cannot get a job. And when I asked what I could do since I could obtain that stamp only from Ukranian Department Of Foreign Affairs? They told me- well go to Ukraine LOL
"to go to another country to put a stamp on a paper to get a job? You gotta be kidding guys. I came here because I need a job because I need money, you offering me to travel to another country for a stamp??" *silence*

but I think recently they issued a law that allows an embassy to put those stamps. Well, right about time. But I already lost my mood for legal jobs unfortunately, I do that job on my own ever since, sorry Greece, no taxes for ya LOL

Dear Boogabaah,

good luck with your plans. It might be hard work, but I'm sure in the end a reward is waiting for you, that is worth all the work.

PS: Macca, here in Germany we need some sort of identification document if we are turning 16. Usually we all have an identity card, but a passport work as well. A passport has the disadvantage that it don't have your address printed on it. That might cause problems in some situations. A driving licence don't do the job.

Why the extra 'o' in look? Is there something going on with the English language that nobody told me about?

Dear Boogabaah,

there's nothing wrong with needing some help from time to time. And yes, people love you . And some are jealous because of the things you do, because they don't dare to do themselves.
