Default RE: Coming soon to the US

Hello again,

It’s very interesting to read something about politic & corruption, but I thought both of this means the same thing, well as my aunt would like to say, there are one thing that u never should discuss… politic & religion.
Here in Germany we have the same thing going on, tax tax tax, political promises from each side just made to get your votes, but like janet Jeckson use to sing “ what have hi don for u lately ?! “.

Well… if I thinking about America I think about the friendly people and the experience which I make on my last tow vacation in VA and TN, some of u would not belief how unfriendly and disrespectful the Germans could be.

At the first time I been into a Wal*Mart somewhere in VA I was confused because every time when somebody has cross my way they says “excuse me please “, here in Germany there wouldn’t say that, there will pushing u the shopping car into your heels.
Nobody have time to care somebody, just going straight ahead and take care the own things, u also could call it quick living.

I like the way how the cashiers ask me “ hi yaa, how is it going “ ore “ hi, u doing fine to day ?! “, over here u would be lucky even to get an simple Hello form the cashiers.

>> If you have the time, and play it right you could end up with your job already had before moving. <<

Well that’s exactly what I tray to do, I already turn in some applications to the Eastman company in Kingsport but without any response, it isn’t a question of time because I’ve got more time that I like to have for my own, it’s not easy to keep a clearly mind if u hanging a round 24 hours per day and do noting just because u can’t get a job.

I work 30 years in Germany just to pay my bills, the Apartment, the pension contribution, all the insurance, last but not least the employer insurance and now the employer centre just telling me that I am too old for a job, but any how... if I like to work… there are some jobs for 4-5 € per Hour.

I said, ok… so if I go work there each day 10 hours from Monday to Friday, it will bring me 1100 € bucks per month, but what about all the tax, the gasoline which have to pay by myself, if I take everything off (tax, health insurance, social insurance, extra tax for east Germany, the gas I would need) there are only 40 % left.

But why should I take a job like this if the employer centre have to pay me anyway each month 1350 cash till next year may, there also have to pay for my health insurance because there get pay from me 30 years long without doing any services and now there telling me I am to old.

Ok, let me ask something else for the Hobby.

I would like to take some special thinks to the US when I am leaving and a See box will cost me a lot.

My NC self-made milling machine, two Plotters (one just to make Drawings and the other to cut foils), an small lathe / milling combination, two 5 cylinders radial engine ( Moki Gasoline & Seidel Glow ) I think that would be all.

All my models I will sale to somebody (it break my heart).

U think I doing right?
