I'm a simple emigrant, and I'm being torn away from the local service

If your main problem is that waiters don’t smile, and social-service workers or people in the public sector spend most of their time with a grim face, then you still don’t understand how wonderful everything is. When I lived in Russia, I thought roughly the same. But moving to Germany made me understand what bad service really means. And this isn’t even about the fact that waiters or store consultants treat customers as if they were uninvited relatives three generations removed who showed up to a closed party. I’ve had no internet at home for five days already. Some global glitch on the provider’s side, and now in some parts of Frankfurt there’s no network. Can you even imagine that? It turns out there’s a problem, people suffer (and I’m not talking about not being able to watch Netflix, but about the fact that most people are still on home office and working under such conditions is impossible), and they work at their own pace exclusively during working hours, naturally. For me, as a person used to deadlines of “yesterday,” and simply to the idea that work must be done, it’s perfectly normal to work in my own free time or until 5 a.m., for example, and only then go to sleep with a clear conscience (or continue with other tasks). And I could hardly imagine such laid-back service for such money before. My friends surely immediately came up with two ideas: go work somewhere with public Wi‑Fi or set up a hotspot on your phone. Let me answer right away. People here haven’t even heard yet that cafés and restaurants can offer free Wi‑Fi to customers, and I won’t even mention municipal networks. On the second: for 10 euros a month you get 2 GB of mobile internet. So a day and a half of active use, and that’s it. After that, speeds are enough to send text messages in messengers and occasionally VK, and one and a half minutes to upload each picture. It’s good that we run our blog on Telegram and Instagram, for example, an unaffordable luxury. Do you think the internet will show up tomorrow in our city’s IT and banking sectors? #frankfurt
