I have applied for over a hundred jobs

I have made more than a hundred job applications prior to today. I don’t feel so much for the most of the jobs. I know nothing about the work places. I only know what the ad says they want. That is about it. The work places seldom really say what I really want to know. What type of leadership do they have? What are the colleagues like? What type of humor do people have? What kind of values do they have? Is the environment open or enclosed? What type of people are really working there? Even if I would ask I do not think that the answers always would be true. I think people do as they do on Facebook. They lie and give the perfect version of themselves. I don’t think that work applications are any truth to the persons either. I rather not say I am this or that. I say what I have done and if that is not good enough, then perhaps the place isn’t either?

The work ads are not really made the way I would like them to. I want to know about the place, what type of environment it is and what type of people work there. Then I would like to have the possibility to say no thank you without the government taking away the a-kassa. However on this point unemployed have to take a full-time offered job. Nobody is forced to take a part-time job according to the rules.

However the type of “work” mostly offered is trial employment, that really is a shitty form of employment. You have no rights. They do not even need to give you a reason if they do not want you anymore. On a project job they will have to pay you no matter what. Project jobs are a better form of employment.

The work market inn Sweden isn’t easy. You have to be “lagom”, regular Joe or Anne are wanted. “Fit in” is the key word. In my world that is “play theater”. Social skills they call them, the skills that not all of us can meet, even though being nice and honest and reliable. Sweden doesn’t want that type of worker. You should all be molded into a certain shape and “fit in”. It is not an easy work market. It is not enough that you are nice or skilled, those are not the criteria on this work market.

Since it is very difficult to find a nice work place it would be better if the unemployed had sites on the net where they advertise their skills and the work places had to apply to them in order to get colleagues. This way the unemployed wouldn’t have to apply for jobs they do not get anyway. There are CV databases, but I am not talking about that. I am talking about another way of finding workers. Let the jobs come to the workers instead. Let the workers be able to say no. This would indeed change the balance I think.

Skylar Grey C’mon Let me Ride your bicycle ft. Eminem

A real parody music video with all stereotypes of a white trash environment.
A boy girl, beauty queens with three boobs, girls with no clothes, men in typical cowboy
clothes, Eminen has regular clothes and a bike, girls in all shapes, trailors, bubble bath
in kiddy pool and sometimes a perfect 50′s women in a perfect environment, so what is this video
all about really?

There is a bike with horns, there are “fuck off” signs, there is an X made of axes. They are in circle, like everything goes around and around? She also sings that in the beginning. There are the numbers 7 and 11, why those? 11 is an elite number. 7 is human. Some also think of 7 as magical in other cases. I do not think it is a coincidence that the numbers have been given to the ones that judge the girl. The human elite judges poor people? Judges girls? Judges who is worth something or what?  And after all, I know what bicycle is all about… having sex.  She uses the word ride, so that can as well as be about sex. She says she only wants to have sex with the man. So well.

The surgery is named grey – not all is black and white… fun twist on artist name. Well. The surgeon has a building tool… so with this one we could say that she thinks that plastic surgery is like war on the female body.

Eminem sings “they call me the dragon” it sounds like that anyways. Is he portraying the devil? That women want to fuck the devil? Or what?

A filthy video or what? Are the poor filth? Perhaps in the eyes of the rich. I happen to think of it as the opposite. The real parasites on Earth are those that have a lot and do not care about how they spend nature resources not the ones that have nothing and live friendly with the surroundings.

Well. I haven’t really made a thurrow interpretation of the video, it has so much symbolism. You can try to do it yourself.

Lucia – a Swedish tradition

We celebrate Lucia in Sweden. And it is honer of a saint named Lucia in Italy. A girl that had really beautiful eyes that where cut out. She was a so called marture. Well. We Swedes celebrate it anyways. Children and adults dress in white clothes, some are “tärnor”, others “stjärngossar” (star boys), “tomtar” (Santas little helpers), “pepparkaks-gubbar” and “pepparkaks-gummor” and one of the girls is a Lucia. Lucia has a crown with candles lighten, a red stripe on her waist. The red stripe symbolizes blood, Lucias sacrifation. Tärnorna has glitter in their hair and glitter around their waist. The pepper cookie man and women are part of the tradition since pepper cookies are typical Swedish food around the holidays surrounding christmas. Well, other Scandinavian countries also celebrate Lucia, but not many other countries do.

My kid will be a “pepper cookie”-person. I have a costume for that. The other day I overheard that it was accused of beeing rasist. I cannot understand why. It is a very common cookie and it is brown and very Swedish. So I see nothing wrong in continuing using this tradition. My spouse thought of it as rasist today. I think it is not, nor do the kindergarden teachers. I am thinking – is it better to have all in Ku-klux-klan clothes? The “Stjärngossar”, “tärnor”, Lucia and so are dressed in white ku-klux-kan-looking clothes. So what is better? Looking like a nice brown Peppar cookie? Or like ku-klux-klan members? I am just saying all attributes are different and there must be a limit to all this nonsens. Not letting children be blessed in church. Not beeing able to have anything with advent in Swedish schools. Sweden is loosing their traditions due to someone starting all these nonsene accusments of rasism. None of the Swedish traditions are rasist, but they are however gender specific. A boy is not usually Lucia, but that can change. Some years ago I read that a boy wanted to be Lucia at kindergarden. They finally let him be that. I think that is awsome. There is no similarities with ku-klux-klan and Lucia. Nor is there any relation to the colour brown of the pepper cookies. Black people are not called “brown” in Sweden, they are called “black”, even though their colour in fact is brown. Well, no matter what colour of skin the children have they can be any of the different characters in the Lucia train. Lucia doesn’t care about origin. I just think it is so sad that there even is a discussion like this.

My kid will be a pepper cookie. The costume was really cheap, so yes I bought it on last christmas sale for almost nothing. And my child likes the dress. Let the kid have it! Embrace it! Let us Swedes keep our traditions, that is what units us. We have something to look forward to. Christmas and Lucia is  a time for joy. A time for unity. For all Swedes, old and new.

So stop calling our traditions rasist. Stop stopping our traditions. Let us have them. Without them we loose our national identity. We have many hundreds of year old traditions. Some are ment to be kept. Even in school. So is Lucia.

In the video the “tärnor” are however not wearing glitter. Having red bands (stripes) is also sometimes on the “tärna”, it depends on the “design”. Here the girls also have green leaves in the hair.

Norweigan kids celebrating Lucia, they also have a different type of outfit. They also talk about Allhelgona-weekend in Norway. That we also celebrate in Sweden. After about 2,5 minutes you see the typical outfits that are very common for celebrating Lucia. The “pig” tradition isn’t a Swedish tradition. In Sweden we have a “mandel” in the porage instead.

Indian authoroties are keeping a Swedish corps hostage

A girl, working as a volonteer at a orphanage, got pains after dining out at a Indian restaurant. They went home to the place where they stayed and the Swedish girl died. It´s suspected that she was poisioned, according to Aftonbladet.se. The authoroties are now saying it could take up to five years to investigate and make an autopsy, according to the article. I am saying, the autopsy can me made in Sweden and much faster. Please release the body, it´s disrespectful to keep a Swedish body hostage in a foreign country far away from the family. It´s inhumane. It´s disrespect to all of the Swedish population. If I die abroud I want my body returned home as fast as possible. I have been in India. Imagine if I would have died there… and not been allowed to go home? What a terrible thing, if I would have known that I would never have gone to India.

I think Indian authooroties should be ashamed. People even got home earlier after the tsunami. I think it´s terrible. Release the body to the Swedish mother. She needs closure. Please.

Hairy women was joked about

A women, a Sikh women, studying at Ohio University was secretly photographed and put on the Internet. They wrote jokes about her and she happend to see them and replayed. According to Aftonbladet.se she has facial hair, mustasch and polisongs, but she is a women.

I am just saying. It´s everyones right not to cut their hair, some are hairier than others.Having facial hair is annoying sometimes. Ant women with facial hair do not allways shave it off, it grows so fast. Some think it consumes time. I know it does. So if someone doesn´t want to shave, let them be. Men are not the only ones with facial hair. 15% of women in the world have PCO and they can grow facial hair easier if they have that type of hormons. It´s a normal form of women and therefor I think people should be more accepting. Understanding. Let men and women grow hair. It´s up to each and every one.

I do not like uncivilized people

When you are in a neighbood of houses with a lot of small children you need to take consideration to your neighbours. On my way home a boy about 7-8 years old stand peeing in front of the garage, just 20 meter from his own house. He is a foreigner, so I do not know if this is some kind of norm that is okey by his parents or not.

Anyway I yelled to the boy “Go inside to pee”. The boys bigger brother said “I have to pee”. I yelled to him “Put your penis in your pants and go home and pee like civilized people do”.

Then I went off home. I came home, told my spouse the event and asked my spose what kind of parents do not teach their children manners? My spose thought I should go over to the boys parents. I said, I will. I went over there and the door was open and his father was by the outdoor stairs. I told the father he should teach his kids not to pee outdoors in our neighboorhood, since there are female children there. He said I was not allowed to tell his children what to do to. I said to him he is bringing down the whole neighboorhood by letting his children behave uncivilized. I got pretty angry when he screamed at me, so I said, we are not in the bush in Africa anymore. You are in Sweden and here we are civilized. I know that was bad on my part to bring up his inheritage, but he was so begging for it by him not saying I was right.

I would have told any parent in the neighboorhood and since this was a fucking neighboor of mine I had to tell him and his children it is not allright. And who knows what diseases they carry? I don´t want my children to be infected with any disease they might have.

This man was African, just like the guys in the subway the other day. I am starting to wonder, if these African men have taken the violent ways from the African countries with violence and the ways of the non civilized world to Sweden? I happen to believe people should be judged by their actions, not the colour of their skin. There actions however seem to come from the uncivilized violent world of disrespect. There are many cultures with disrespect, just see the countries that are at war. I happen to believe that indifference is the most dangerous thing in the world. And by not reacting to misbehaving one accepts the behavior.

One of my friends is African, but he is civilized. He knows what is right and what is wrong. Africa is big and some countries are very much civilized. I don´t believe it´s their genes that makes them behave like this. I believe it´s their norms, their cultural norms. And in my eyes they are uncivilized. And when I see things I happen to think are wrong I am the one that might say something. By not telling them I would accept their behavior and they would continue thinking it was right. Then who am I when I do not say anything? I am not doing the world any favours by not telling. I just wish this proud African man could get it in his brain that I am trying to tell him that it is not acceptable by Swedish norms. Actually not acceptable by MANY norms. I wonder why these men cannot accept a white person telling them right from wrong? Are they rasist towards us? I feel like they do not valuate me as much as they. I wonder why I get this feeling. Is it because of their attitude against strong women like me? I believe so.

I don´t want any child living here having to see his boys penises. This was about two of his boys.

It´s illegal to pee outdoors in Sweden. There is a penalty on those that do if they are caught by the police.

It´s when foreigners do not accept the Swedish civilized ways of living that people get bias against them. They should behave just as any other has too, they are not above the law. It is forbidden by law to pull out your penis in public spaces outdoors!
