The problem (here in France) is that the number of farmers is going down hard (with suicides every day). They are currently crushed by regulations, labor costs, undercuts by products from other countries with different labor costs and regul

And when it's not a strike, it's the breakdowns. This morning, my commute was one hour longer since there was no train on my line and I had to walk to another one.

I'm calling BS on that. No, you get paid during your holidays in France, wathever the type, RTT or annual leave. In addition to that, you can take unpaid leave. Perhaps you were a contractor? In that case you would not be paid when you

Where do you get your passport done in a week? Last time (in 2014) I did mine, it was closer to one month. And for culture, apart from some museums when you're under 26, public libraries and cultural festival, you have to pay for the r

From what my former classmates told me, for profiles that are roughly equivalent, it looks like to be closer to 40k. But then they are not in consulting companies. And I'm too much of a lazy ass to look for another job. Also I have few

Yeah, like a temp agency, but we are full employees, which means we are still paid between contracts. The problem is knowing the market rate.

I would say 46+ k€, before taxes, which are 33% corporate tax rate and ~30% on personal income. But I'm not sure how it applies to people with tech visa.

Could you expand on corruption? I am keenly aware of its existence in the construction sector there, but do you any other examples?

That's odd, I felt very welcome when I was there hiking this summer. But then it might not have been in the same areas, plus the usual difference between the country and cities.

Well, the current government could be trying to have one positive result. And have some example of migrants with a positive economic impact.
