Archives for February 25th, 2004

With help from a tutorial by the great Matt Haughey, I’ve added a google search to this page. You can now search the archives of The Glory of Carniola from the toolbar on the right. For now and evermore.

After joining the EU, Slovenes will start sleeping naked in money like Demi Moore in Indecent Proposal.

On May 2, 2004, the day after Slovenia joins the European Union, telephones across the country will start ringing with job offers. It’s no secret that western European economies are booming these days, and that they’re especially eager to hire Slavs. The big question is: What do you do when a company calls you and asks you to move to London, and then asks you what salary you have in mind. What do you say? Probably something like "Uh.." or "Hm.." or "Hmm.. uh.. uh.. hmm.."

Well, luckily for you there’s the International Salary Calculator. It lets you compare the cost of living in hundreds of cities around the world. For example, if you make $17.000 and live in Ljubljana, here’s how much you need to earn to maintain the same lifestyle in other cities: London: $22.514 Oslo: $23.279 New York: $30.427 Belgrade: $18.225 Kandahar: $12.473 Some of the figures seem strange, but otherwise it’s a blast. Try the International Salary Calculator for more.
