  • Ladekabel
  • Verhütung (Gerade bei Pille/Ring/...)
  • Allergietabletten, Medikamente
  • Sonnenschutz (Creme, Brille)
  • Zweitschuhe, gerne komprimierbar (faltbare oder rollbare Schuhe falls die Turnschuhe doch mal nicht passen)
  • Reise-Yogamatte (Echt gut, sich abends nochmal strecken zu können)
  • Sport-/Schwimmsachen falls sowas vor Ort verfügbar (Business Hotels haben auch gerne mal Pool und/oder Gym)
  • Creme/Lotion
  • Zahnbürste/Zahnpasta

Unterwäsche und Kleidung vergesse ich quasi nie.

10 hours - hi!

No, we do actually appreciate when people speak good German, we just know it's an absolute pain and want to be nice.

I get teary eyed, but I rarely cry. "The penguin of my life" was my last big challenge, so mean. Great movie though.

And yes, at some point you really want Red to have his little piece of heaven.

I think I am more open for this since I'm older (40s), when I was young I would've never let myself be that open.

Ich bin freiwillig in der GKV, weil ich gesehen habe, wie Leute sich verrenken, um vor dem Ruhestand noch schnell wieder in die GK zu wechseln. Das kann aus meiner Sicht nicht sein und ist das, was unser System überfordert. Eine Versicherung für alle, vielleicht mit optionalem Zusatz (Chefarzt, Einzelzimmer, Zahnzusatz, Brillen, ... ) wäre insgesamt funktionaler und günstiger, ohne dabei diese irre 2-Klassen-Medizin zu erzeugen, wie sie aktuell besteht (Hautarzttermine, super Sache in der GKV).

Eine Angleichung der Beitragsbemessungsgrenze ist ein Schritt, wenn auch nur ein kleiner.

I think I'd like myself as another person, but am still properly critical of myself as me.

Absolutely is. Had a colleague who also looks like a sad puppy when just looking normal/serious.

Hmm vielleicht bin das nur ich, aber da ich immer auch mindestens einen Freund hatte, der gern mal Röcke trug, war das für mich nie ein Thema. Wenn du dir das Teil über den Arm hängst, muss es schon ziemlich girly Farben haben, damit es als Frauending auffällt.

Aber jetzt mal ganz doof: Scheiß drauf, du stehst da mit den Klamotten, die dir gefallen! Meine Mutter musste noch um ihre Jeans kämpfen und ich erinnere mich an Jobs, die ohne Heels als Frau nicht gingen. Du bist mit deinem Rock Teil der allerbesten Tradition!

This is beautiful. Thank you.

Quit school (college level, but where I am it's just another part of school) when I could (I had the right age to make it my business), without ever discussing the matter. Just came home and said I quit school.

Edit: Oh damn you wanted a reason. School was hell for me, I hated everything about it. I had spent about 6 months exclusively doing the classes I was interested in and nobody even took notice. I figured they weren't gonna kick me out at that point, so I quit.

It vastly depends on everything else.

You can be a dude with a normal life, who just makes conclusions faster and you've learned that everyone likes how smart you are and you enjoy this.

You can be a restless mess, because you've known all your life that there's nothing to compete with and it's difficult enough to find someone to even have a somewhat decent conversation on your level with. These people come with or without the arrogance you're thinking of right now. Some are just genuinely kind and thoughtful, but always a step ahead without even really appreciating their ability much.

You can be an absolute underachiever, because being smart was never rewarded in your life. Maybe you even learned that "You're not special" so much so, that you punished others for not being able to draw the same conclusions as you in the same time, because you always thought they were just being lazy on purpose.

You can be entirely unaware and may say funny things like "I don't think we're all that many really smart people in $techplacewithclearlysmartpeople. I talked to most of them and I don't struggle at all".

Source: High IQ myself, working with other people who increasingly talk to me openly about this and their overall situation. So much of who we become is about what our parents do to us and if there's understanding and love and support on that end.

Obviously there's the whole spectrum thing as well. I don't think a higher IQ means "more autism", as someone suggested. I think it increases your chances of struggling with a regular (neurotypical) kind of life, for example because you are supposed to be interested in 1 subject (to make a career), but - similar to people with ADHD - may care for all the subjects.
If you think about what is neurotypical though, you can classify people with a particularly high IQ or people with particularly high sensitivity as neurodiverse in just the same way you do that for people with Autism or ADHD. Now if you think about humanity as a whole, we may all to some degree be diverging from the norm in any or all of these ways, but still be more or less free of struggle, because it's not by much, while for the more extreme cases, they stand out for better or worse.

Da gibt's ja aber einen Grund für.

Anekdote/Eigenerfahrung: Wenn ich den Eindruck hatte, vom Arbeitgeber ungerecht behandelt zu werden, dann war ich weniger engagiert, weniger zuverlässig und öfter krank. Das natürlich auch zu mir bequemen Zeiten, allerdings bin ich eher Montags als Freitags krank.

Natürlich ist "Wie du mir, so ich dir" immer kacke. Trotzdem ist es eine naheliegende Reaktion, wenn man sich nicht so einfach wegbewerben kann. Die Mitarbeiter besser zu behandeln ist da vielleicht tatsächlich ein Weg zu niedrigeren Krankenständen.
