Right now Vil had the best patisserie he ever had. El Raconet de l’Alicia, Rambla Vayreda 33, Gavá. The mini croissant is crispy, covered with a bit honey, the chocolatine is really soft and chocolaty, BUT the pig ear it the best. Really crunchy and an explosion of nutty flavors. A MUST TRY!

Light?
Vil just received a call from a recruiter, and she is interested to present Vil’s cv for a position as a B2B presales engineer. Ok, just a small step, but maybe the start of a new journey.
What are these green things?
Today Vil gave me these funny green things to eat. They are called Olives and they taste like fish and I really like them.

From today on we are not allowed to be together at our “office” in the Dragon Club anymore, because I am a dog and some other dogs or respectively their owners made troubles the last days. It’s always the same. Some fu***** ars***** misbehave and everyone else needs to live with the consequences. Seriously, when will… Read more I am no Pitbull….

After entering the address manually all worked out. The interview itself was a catastrophe. At first, the team leader had no CV at hand, then she didn’t like Vil… Read more Jobsearch – Navigation

Really?! WFT!
It’s interview time. Unfortunately, the recruiter told shit and the salary is not as high as expected. Also, there is no relocation bonus. So be aware that recruiter has no interest to find the best job for you, they just want to sell as many jobs as possible, because they are paid by numbers and… Read more Really?! WFT!

Waiting at the public pool.
? victor is good. ? sleeps. We are back in Germany, and it was no good welcome. We can’t stay at our friends place anymore, because the landlord is not happy to have me in the house and fears about his carpet. That’s obviously a made-up reason to get rid of me.
