One big difference is participation of women in the workplace. A lot of economic growth in the 1990s was fuelled by women entering and returning to the workplace. Businessweek had an interesting article on how male participation in the workplace in the US is the lowest since the 1930s. The...

If you are resident in Germany you register your address at the local town hall and they give you document called an anmelde bestatigung and, generally speaking, you need this, along with a passport, to open a bank account. Non-resident accounts I don't know what the procedure is, like.

if it's software you should have a license agreement. You don't sell your software, you sell someone a license to use it.

I'd imagine the most that the company would be out of pocket would be the difference between your salary and a replacement at short notice for the month. So if they have to hire someone and pay them 25% more than you then they're out of pocket by a week's salary. But as someone said it is...

Ireland has a maths intervarsities every year so you can get some idea of the rankings of the unis. Maybe the Uk has something similar.

anyone know how do aib online share trading pay the dividend? Does it go into a bank account or is it by cheque? edit: just checked - in bank account dated today

I reckon there will be more sellers than buyers which will mean low profit margins. As you mention, people are strapped for cash and therefore would like to raise some by selling baby furniture. But people are often reluctant to buy second-hand baby furniture because they don't know its...

AIB told me to read the back of the statement for terms and conditions. I get e-statements online and there is no way to turn them over!!!

I'd suggest that foreign language skills would greatly increase your future prospects. If you think of European people who have your skillset or similar, they probably also have additional fluent English, therefore they already have an advantage. Even the American company google employs 70%...

yes you can. If you are an employee tax is deducted as paye and you would have to file separate tax returns for your company. You could also consider a contracting agreement where the employer pays your company directly and you look after all your own tax returns. You should probably talk to an...

with more books going onto e-readers and other virtual platforms, and archives going into databases and as libraries are a non-essential public service which puts them at risk of budget cuts, I wouldn't have thought of libraries as a future growth industry.

If I use AIB online share trading platform, how should I expect a dividend on shares to be paid out? Is it sent as a cheque or credited to a bank account directly or another method? Thanks in advance.

there are push and pull factors if someone is going to move to another county or city or country and being "frowned upon" is evidently not enough of a push factor. Anyway, you're suggesting that the guy in question might be gay, which is really none of your business, and saying he should move...

I gave up smoking using nicorette things you place under your tongue and they dissolve in your mouth, not sure now what they're called.

you're right there but it's hard to move to the city unless you have a job lined up first. And there is a strong sense of community in parts of rural Ireland which is hard to replace.

Not if his ambition is to smoke dope and play computer games all day! :cool: I've been there though I was significantly younger than 37 then. He probably doesn't want to take any old job because then he'll find it hard to get out of and to do what he wants. Those working for free dole...

I'd guess legally yes, but realistically no. If they are offering you one or the other they won't give you both.

If the guy is a director who's gonna fire him? If she thinks she saw something criminal she should tell the cops. Otherwise, her boss might only be guilty of bad taste and it may not be a sacking offense at all.

afaik businesses dont have to take coins. Some don't take 200 euro notes, but I guess these days they're not so picky. In legal terms you're probably making an offer to buy something but the retailer does not accept unless he sees the money he wants and there has to be offer and acceptance for a...
