  1. 6 days out and they change it? Did someone hit a panic button?

  2. So if an engineer lose a job now he has options to either become engineer again, become funeral worker or get out of the country since all other sectors require licensing to get into.

    I should read on how to handle coffins I guess just in case.

  3. If I understand correctly, it will be possible to switch between job fields without applying for a new residence permit. But I have a question: when will this change take effect? Is it already in force now?
