a new friend...
well i guess the day was not all boring. Every day i sit in the same spot to update this and email. and every weekday the Putzfrau comes with her vacuum, vacuuming the coblestone floor...the germans love to have clean floors i guess. anyways today she came by like always at around 7 30 and did her regular sweep. i noticed her vacuum was broken so i told her. and she was like oh yes i know it broke a while ago.
then after she was done with the little area she came and sat at the table next to me saying she was tired. then she proceeded to talk non stop for the next 10 minutes. I found out she is from Romania, that she think german grammar is very hard. that she does not get paid enough. that even though her vacuum is broken the uni wont buy her a new one. that she cant retire till she is around 65 and in romania everyone is done at 58. that she had been working for 4 hours already today, and a few things more. of course she had a romanian accent to her german thus making it a bit hard to understand. so i am sure i missed a bunch more. im sure ill talk to her again so ill keep you all updated...
