....soo true.... she is such a natural comedian and CREATIVE superfunny ALLROUND-talent

I literally watched it with tears in my eyes. I am also an immigrant/ Erasmus student in Germany and I desperately have to work. I am working in a restaurant as a waitress and trying to deal with a very uncommunicative and rude boss. It's becoming a huge problem with everything I do. If I do something and its wrong according to the boss, he yells at me and if I don't do that the next time- he yells at me again. It's an impossible situation to make them pleased even though the customers are very pleased with my service. I learned a little bit German enough to take orders and in complicated situations I speak English and everybody is being okay with it except my boss. LOL. Your video literally healed me and I saw I am not alone and this is not the only case. Bosses are mostly rude and egoistic, and you should not listen them- what I learned now. Being poor is so hard lol, I wish I would not have to work and ruin all my Erasmus experience. I hear you!!! and we are not alone.... Trying to survive is so ard and we are making it in a country has a language now even our 2. language but hardly 3rd one with the most complicated structure. I'm sending you a big hug❤ Thanks for making this video, really.

Never change erika! Your contents are so jolly.

Hey Erika I love your cartoon animations, they've got a bit of everything, they're informative, entertaining, funny, and a long etc...

I love your storytelling skills

ALL YOUR videos are full of selfironic wisdom and refreshing honesty... every video is a refreshing fireworks of entertaining information. Your creativity and temperament is bursting out of your every cell and radiating all over the world. I only have to watch a video or a tiktok dancing clip from you... and my mood lightens up and winter depression has no chance anymore. ERIKA....Du kaempfst Dich durch ohne Deine Prinzipien aufzugeben. EIN VORBILD!!! fuer die Jugend und das Ganze immer mit viel Selbstreflektion, Selbstironie und komoediantischem Talent. Ich bin aelter aber Deine videos fuehlen sich super FRISCH, EHRLICH, JUNG und FREI an. DANKE!!!

"All that jazz," "loosey goosey," lol, youre so well versed in American idioms.

ur channel is soooo underrated , i really don’t understand why there aren’t more ppl following u

You're a great storyteller and your insights and sense of humor make your videos a joy to watch. Keep up the great work!!!

Omg, yes! Managers are like that!

In the USA you'd need to take a class: All bartenders, servers, and waiters who handle and serve alcohol will be required by the California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control starting July 1st, 2022 to be certified through the Responsible Beverage Service (RBS) within 60 days of hire. the $12 (usd) course includes 30 multiple choice quiz questions to help you prepare for the RBS Department exam you will be taking in order to become a certified alcohol server after completion of our course.

So many people speak English in Germany it's almost impossible to get practice. Learning a language really needs to be totally immersive to perfect it. As soon as someone realizes you speak English they auto-switch over to English. It's just how it is.

@@AlgorelXbox I second that. I live in a small-"er" town near Köln (still 100 000 people) and nobody here speaks English to me even though I'm obviously not a native speaker. That made me learn Deutsch to B2 quite fast to take my mom to the doctor for example. I'm sure that younger people speak English, but nobody switches if I start an order in German. In Berlin that didn't work, waiters switched to English as soon as they heard that I me and my friend were speaking Ukrainian to each other

Been to an Irish pub in Paris next to the Pantheon. Nice vibe and food there. Stromae Alors On Danse😊

I can’t think I’ve ever heard Abba in an Irish pub before. Usually in American it’s traditional Irish music or something else Irish like U2 or The Cranberries.

I just found this channel and I feel like I stumbled upon 257 kilograms of gold with a side of diamonds, so very criminally underrated

Some Hospitality managers that my wife worked with have had similar attitude problems. In a couple of cases they ended up getting fired. For best results stand up for yourself and be assertive when necessary.

the content you’re creating is phenomenal. Congratulations! :)

Love the content, with life stories with humour and candor. Also the travel vids. Viel Erfolg weiter :D

Fantastic narration Erika

I really enjoy your content. Thanks for sharing little slices of your life with us. And yes, I know exactly how that feels. Service jobs are really hard.

You provide me stress relief every time .

Working as a waitress is a beautiful and shitty experience at the same time. However, I'd recommend it to anyone because you end up learning the ropes about how to deal with people. Your experience was kind of interesting, though, haha. Good video ma'am! :)

Love the channel hope it grows more

As a bartender this is so relatable

The animations are beyond awesome, just loved it😃

This is my favorite video of yours so far!! Please keep them coming 😍

Thank you for brighten up our day Erika. How to turn a bad experience into a funny video? Ask Erika!

This is your best video so far 🥺🥺🥺 i love it!!!

Keep up the great work, you are so talented and funny!

The most extroverted Latvian I have ever met nice video

Great job

Amazing! You rock, girl!

If the Irish Pub has new management, that doesn’t mean the owner has changed and he still owes you the money. So how many Irish Pubs are in the oldest town in Germany? I would guess less than 2. Between the 40 euro haircut for 60 euros and this place robbing you of 20 hours of pay and tips, lots people from all over should be sending you jars of peanut butter. I’m sure it would happen if there was a way. Keep of the good work.

Took a picture, but now I see I can’t post it in the comments. Looking forward to see where you land next. If it’s near Germany I’ll bring some peanut butter for you the next time I’m going over there.

I think the lesson here is that you need to always have a contract, even if you just work for a day or a week. It’s import to have the papers, especially in Germany. It’s the evidence tthat can help you when you want to sue them for being wage thief. Also there’s insurance call Rechtsschutzversicherung, it’s really helpful with lawsuits.

Respekt! Sehr cool gemacht, dein Video. ❤

Loved this video.

Such a great channel 🙌

I really enjoy your videos. You are great and you make great stuff. I am sorry that you come across the guy who didn’t pay you

This was great!

in Germany can you sue for your pay, if you do can you also get even extra money based on how long you had to wait or have to wait. i would recommend you suing to get it your wage back with Zinsen because you didn't receive it on time.

Awwww what a difficult experience glad it is in your past

Young lady I am enjoying your videos A LOT... Cheers!

LOL, I thought the same. The term "Viez" in itself is a giveaway. Were I live now it would have been "Äppler".

I'm pretty sure that i know which pub it is, haven't been there in like 10 years, but 12-15years ago i was a regular there. To say it politely, i have my reasons to never visit it again.

Im english learner but i can understand 80% Thanks for this material

beer should be poured with the glass bent

I live in Denver. You do not want to be from here, believe me.

Hey Erika, where in Germany are you located? I come from Chile and been living for a bit more than 2 years in Düsseldorf. I feel identified with your struggling with the language hahah, funny way to tell your story story! Anyways, hope you keep doing great!!

Cute vídeo

Where are you from? Great channel!

I've also worked in a ladies clothes shop and I know how much of headache do u get 1) the owner of the shop left the shop for me on the 4th day after I joined he said now u have to run the business and 4 days I didn't even knew the names of variety of clothes of women leggings / top /frog / trouser / plazu / etc and many more items inner included I didn't even knew what price to tell to the customer and at what price can I sell it at last sometimes I said too much price which would make the customer run away 2) the owner would come to my shop and would stare at me while I'm dealing with the customer which would make me pressurized to speak up to the customers 3) and would expect me to become fluent like them in a week or so they have a experience of 10/15 years but want me to learn everything in 3/4 days 4) u need to show the clothes pack them up bargain with customers and customer wouldn't look one dress they'll buy one dress but look many clothes and try which becomes extremely hard and time consuming to repack and set it nicely neat and clean 5) I cannot get a time to sit under air and rest as soon as I finish packing up the clothes I have to go outside the shop and call the customer to come to my shop 6) the list goes on 7) final thoughts never work at a place where the owner is not supportive and co operative

Ich würde Sie gerne Stromaes Lied „Papaoutai“ oder ein anderes Lied singen hören. Vielleicht können wir erwarten, neben „Das Leben in einem Studentenwohnheim ist chaotisch (living in a student dorm is messy)“ auch ein Musikvideo zu sehen?🎤🎧

I can’t understand how that is possible with the wage! Isn’t it possible to complain to state authorities or to demand to be paid or compensated by the revenue the pub made that day? What if you just get the money from the counter and go?

Some employers take advantage of foreign workers who do not know their rights and how to enforce them

Очень милые видео, спасибо большое за твой контент :)

OMG! I was one hundred percent sure that you're Russian, or, Ukrainian, or Belorussian just because in one of your videos you called people who don't buy tickets rabbit/hare. Just so you know, we call them this way in these countries. Nice to know that you're from Latvia :D

They came to an IRISH pub and expect to be served in German, lmao

Idk if i can make it,im starting b1 in my home country next month,im gonna move alone to germany but my luck is that i have relatives that are willing to help,im just very scared about legal side of things,can I get an eu blue card will i get a residence permit will i have an option for cittizenship after five years or ill be rejected and it was all for nothing will i get deported will i find a job will i find friends will i find a place to study

People in Europe dont what or where Latvia is? Wtf. Dr. Doom, hello.

Name and shame the pub. wage theft is not okay.

I find it really strange that people would complain about people speaking English in an IRISH pub. Like... it's a cultural hotspot for brits for a reason and they speak English all the time. Plus most Germans shouldn't have an issue ordering in English. Customer service can be a pain I'd imagine.

как хорошо, что я знаю английский и на своей работе я просто ничего не делаю 12 часов, потому что я могу смотреть видео эрики о том как она реально работала

I consider myself a better employee than you because I try to experiment everything that the client "may" asks to give a sincere opinion on this issue, until today no one has asked me what this beer is for, but I keep trying. sincerity is the soul of the business. 😊😊😊

I've heard some customers can be incredible, like incredibly rude. I don't understand it. I've only seen it ONE time myself and that was when I was a in luxary restaurant in Stockholm... one incredibly rude, I guess, snobby woman wasn't happy with the food and even tho the waiter appologize and they got FREE drinks for it, she was still rude and mad... unbelivable. Some people are just a piece of work. I always think it's such a luxary that someone serves you so im always overly polite to service people

this is a perfect opportunity to learn German And you should learn German in Germany

I'm sorry but you need thicker skin. Customers and managers can be jerks but you not knowing how to speak German or standing around waiting for pizza, is your fault.

I’ve been binge watching all of your videos, you’re such a pleasant person 🥺 do you have a public instagram where you create content as well? Would love to keep up with you!

so where you actually from????

Dear Erika I love your videos on KZread How you edit them shows how creative person you are 🩵 Thank you so much .
