i love how his story finishes exactly when he arrives at michaels house lmao, just like in irl when u telling a story
Shit like this makes me realize how I have such a privileged life being born into a financially stable middle class family. I hope everyone in the same situation the best.
Appreciate the concern to others.
Jesus didnt know someone makes that much in the german army
It’s not much in generally, but as you don’t have anything to pay like gas or water and this shit, it starts getting much
In norway you make 10k for a 12 month service
@@vebjrndrefvelin4873 thats less than 1k per month. Very low imo
@@brucenicc4698 still considering you get drafted its better than nothing, and you get to do cool shit as well, and since you have living expenses paid for the money adds up quickly
He did compulsory service.
Now if you have lowest degree and you start in the army you make 1,8K after taxes then starting off.
"Hey This ginger guy can count to 10..." 🤣 thats what my brain says when I get something right lol
Here in Russia you get around 325 usd (or 27 per month!) for the compulsory military service (1 year). It's often include hard labour with explosive materials. If it's not morden slavery I don't know what is.
Ye I heard only shit about russian compulsory service. Im a wolga german (german decendants that lived in russia, wolga) and a lot of us are in germany again and I have a friend that still has russian passport because he was born in russia and he cant go to russia now until hes 28 because of compulsory service.
Then you have never Heard of the syrian special forces
You get nothing and in the end you die
@@JustaSimpleComplexSyrian Have you joined it? if so how are you writing now
@@tenr0h That's sucks. But it's for the better. I assume he has relatives back in Russia, otherwise, I can't imagine why he needs to go back here. I know about Volga Germans. I live in Volgograd, so naturally, we study about them a little :) Hope you doing well!
I enjoy these kind of videos Markoni, kinda reminds me of the old school story time. Anybody knows what happened to that french girl story vid? That was my favourite video of Tommy.
deleted for good reasons basically
@@Markoni1100 oh I understand it was a touchy subject and he moved on with his wonderful new girlfriend.
@@ssito3515 can i get a rundown of the drama?
@@donny3245 yeah me too
@@alvinlin8140 me too
atleast he wasn't forced into an art school..
Jokes aside but Imagine being that one guy who is mentally better than others and doing the most unpleasent job. S*cks so much
Man I can relate to Tommy here I remeber being 17 18 and feeling as low as I have ever been. deadbeat and ashamed of myself. to anyone in that spot you can pull yourself out of it!
TommyK:"We would drive around for hours in the city and he would always show off"
All the starving children in Africa:Am i a joke to you?
in my country this will sound ameising like 200 euro per mounth only to drive with some one
wher do you live
@@Jannes1122 Bulgaria
Damn, I'd take that job till I got to college, 200 euros a month to do nothing? That's decent pocket money in Romania
But the prices in Bulgaria might be different than in Germany.
@Towarzysz Wiedźmin Thats nothing in Germany
Had no idea that Tommy was in the army. Would be interested to hear some of his stories from when he was in.
On his main channel (tommykay( there is a playlist with life stories. There is some army stories there
@@generalleedle6883 they are amazing
There are some videos about it. I think there was one where he told about him fing up as a young Tommy.
military service is compulsory in Germany, as it should be in the USA.
@@benrodir2 its not compulsory in Germany since 2011
Just discovered this channel because of all the TommyKay Videos and I decided I will just sleep 6 instead of 7 hours until I have to get up
now its a 1,5€ job. I know that cause i did Bundesfreiwilligendienst, Federal Volunteer Service, where people worked like that in a Social Second Hand Store. Even i as a volunteer got more money oof.
Other countries have this kind of "activation" for unemployed people too. Bad thing about it is that they start replacing real jobs with these one euro workers.
240 euros a standard salary in Serbia.
Here in germany it's half your rent if you are lucky
@@Torodes23 half your rents maybe if youre living in the garden only
@@killuazoldyck7705 thats why i said if you are lucky :D
In Iran 100 euros are a decent monthly payment. And nothing is cheap, comparing to london.
@chetnoMAN 180 euros man thats my dream. can't get anything below 400 in germany, and thats for some rather small apartments in old buildings
Tommy is a good man for doing this for his family, not that much of a low. Only a few months.
When I was NEET around 7, 8 years ago I had to get "job experience" by helping other NEETs apply for jobs, like people who cant even use PCs, or unemployment office said they would cut my neet bucks, was fucking horrible man. The other NEETs were mostly homeless, recent immigrant or former criminals who had such a low chance of getting jobs and I would hear their stories and think "damn, my life sucks rn and I'm still in a better situation than them".
traitor to the neets
The goverment is a lovely place with lovely people
Yeah lovely people that wanna tax the fuck outta you
this is my favourite piece of tk lore
and when i was in the greek army for my required serivice i made 30 euros per month Noice!
I served in Vietnamese army as militia. Made like 200 dollars a months. I have serve for 3 years. I got no choice back then.
Thanks for sharing that story bro and for the upload.
tommay making that bank in the army
This is maybe the funniest story Tommy has ever told
Tommy was a modern-day slave in germany ...what a life.
HOW MUCH IS THE FISH! Lol
Holy jesus man, i tought that things like this appened only in italy....
Would you like to make a react video on "Everywhere at The End of Time - Stage 1-6" by The Caretaker?
its a little long,
hello again Markoni !
hi :)
If you think about it, you could've bypassed that. I would've set up a Mietvertrag (rent contract) so you would basically rent your room for idk 1 Euro a month, so you and your parents would not be seen as one entity, but because you are renting your living space it would be seperate
Well what of this was the lowest point in his life? Maybe he had a great life.
I understand what he means tho. I had bad times technically worse time but that was always a stuff out of my control. But when I had to do something similar to what tommy describes here I lost all self-respect for myself and felt really really low
Nice Storry Tommy. Ich hoffe deiner Familie geht's inzwischen besser
Theres a lot of fucked up and weird shit in the German system, they tried to make a good system but theres so many flaws. When my father came to Germany (like 30ish years ago), he wasnt allowed to work. Like for 2(maybe it was even 4 Im really not sure) he wasnt allowed to do pretty much anything. Combimed with that, he had to live in what we call "Flüchtlingsheime" where a lot of people who flew where put together not regarding nationality or their mental state etc so basically my father who was mentally sane and just flew from war had to put up with traumatized people who drank all day and literally smashed toilets and other stuff for no reason in their own room while also not being able to work and thus earn any money (meaning everything had to be sent by his father from abroad).
Imagine that: you flew from your country in order to not be drawn into war and this is what you have to put up with. That doesnt mean everything is bad, but thats just another example where the system is kind of flawed imo
If we can't have Prussia back, we should at least try to get the Prussian spirit back. Because Germany today is a complete shit show of bureaucratic inefficiency.
German discipline will truly be a thing of the past at this rate.
There is something to be said about Germans never failing to fall in line with whatever their state makes them put up with.
@@MaskofPoesy xD. I mean it kind of makes sense not to disobey the country that lets you stay secure from being drafted into war. I wouldnt have disobeyed either, who knows if they'd have just sent you back to your country or sth. Especially after fleeing, my father often feared that if he was to get sent back, that he might get into trouble upon arriving
@@MinecraftMasterNo1 no one on gemany wants monachists or prussian traditions back @everyone these are just some people who dream about some weird shit
just want to say to markoni, you're doing a great job, stay wonderful :)
Bruhhh I’d rather just pick garbage or clean the park as a 1 euro job instead at least I’m doing something with tax money
I was the one who asked him the question 😄
oh i did maßnahmen aswell. its ridiculous. we (adults) were tasked to color pictures with crayons. its a joke
That sounds a bit more corrupt than Romania
the lowest salary in turkey still less than 1 euro. its like 75 cent per hour :'(
(pain)
BRUH, I used to get less then 1 euro an hour (about 70%) of a euro and I had to work 6 days out of a week for 9-10 hours a day in a restaurant. I did that every summer for 4 years starting when I was 15, now I'm 19 and in college and having a free summer is so fucking amazing man. Still sucks that I don't have much money in my pocket tho. Mongolia sucks ass
While when I was 19 I was working in Germany near Leipzig actually so I can live and go to college
the idea sounds smart but it turns out to be shit: litterly the history of germany
What you do is pay your self a wage
Sad thing is in Turkey you dont get jack shit if you are broke
So you could maybe try and look for another job there or make other plans.
Also why not just exercise at the end of the day? That might not have been possible, but maybe it was since his "boss" was such a lax guy.
Use that time to somehow improve yourself, maybe start some light studying before the university so you have the right grindset before it
He just came out of military service. I think he did enough exercise already. I understand wanting to relax for 4 month before university starts after having been in the military
All of this because the DDR fell
A 1 euro job still gives more money than the minimum wage in Turkey lol (1x6hoursx30 days= 240 euros= 2200 tl Turkey minimum wage 2100tl)
You only work 20 days a month in that job. Monday to Friday.
5:55 7:40
How long was Tommy in the German army? In the US it seems like you’d be treated better than that
Its drinking and shouting idiots
@@mullukarschdreck8525 thanks! But I meant more for like post service when back in civilian life, idk much about how it is during actual service
we call it grunfausbildung i think its 13 month
@@feuerwerkisttoll2935 interesting thank you!
I don't think you get any benefits after serving, military service is not respected in Germany at all. You get good money but people regard the Bundeswehr as incompetent idiots
Question: Did you do the military service/was the military service still mandatory back then when you did it? or was it more like... hm Ima give it a try
Unlikely if it's mandatory. Cold War already ended.
I think it was the last year where it was still mandatory
@@madwolf0966 It was mandatory until 2010, we still have it but its disabled and can be enabled every time through parliament in theory. Conscription was very important for the Bundeswehr because a lot of high rank officers got to know the army trough conscription year.
Hier een euro...
What year where you in the army both my parents where station back in Germany back in the day in the US Army
See now that doesnt happen at least i think. Now there are stuff like Glovo and Wolt in europe where you can litterly ride your bike for 4 hours a day, accept some food delivery, ride 5 minutes to the closest mcdonalds, get the food, deliver it and with a avrage tip you get paid 1-2 euros for that. Today people dont know the hustle and the stuff that older generations had to do to survive and provide for their family.
at the start i kinda thought that the job would be full of migrants or something
Is army mandatory in Germany for like 2 years
It was, but it isnt anymore
@@dr.meddenrasen1729 Should be tho.
@@BavarianHobbit True
@@BavarianHobbit no absolutely not
@@BavarianHobbit The army size already is big enough unless we want to invade someone. And you make so many people waste a year of their live that they could have spend studying, working something productive or just see the world.
Man :-(
Wait. So this guy has money saved up, lives with his parents who are unemployed and wants to game for months? And he complains ablut having to help his family? Idk maybe im missing something but wtf.
His family gets government assistance and has enough money to live and his dad didn't work because of personal problems (drinking). He was helping the family by living off his own hard earned money in his bank instead of relying on them. Remember he just came from military service, a job.
Anyways So let's say he finds a job for 4 month and he earns enough to feed the family, the government would retract their assistance because someone in that household now earns enough to raise them above the threshold, meaning they would potentially have same money or less as with gov assistance. But he wants to go to university soon so the parents would have to reapply for assistance again and start from zero. Instead they force him to go to a program intended for unemployed people to re-activate them (even tho it's his dad that is the long term unemployed one). If he didn't go they'd cut his parents assistance. This system usually works fine but It was straight up stupid in this case
but but Noooo government programs solve everythinngggg more money for social workers pls
Reeeeeeeë
On point mate 👌
They do solve a lot lol. This system is made for people who grow into poverty and become unemployable. Your mind needs work to stay sharp so you don't rest on gov assistance they push you to get some kind of employment. If you refuse they cut the assistance. If you can't find a job after a time they send you to somethinf like this. Basically this was a kind of therapy thing intended people who have a hard time getting employed (stupids) or grow up around crime (to keep them out of crime). Works pretty well according to studies
Noice
Lmao this actually sounds like a good thing from the government. Means people cant live off the system
Getting paid to surf the web doesn't sound much better
@@Andrew-rd9zq no but the idea of getting people who are too lazy to work to do shitty jobs. If it was pulled off as intended then it would be perfect
@@jamesshone1677
In a country with an average IQ of 100 there are still roughly 15% of people with an IQ below 85, about 5% with an IQ below 75.
Some of those people are actually borderline retarded, and i dont mean retarded as an insult, but rather as "really close to the legal definition of mental disability"-retarded.
Even if given simple jobs, many of them will actually do more harm than good, and given the cost of required supervision for those people, they actually contribute negative value/productivity while "working" most of the time.
@@Tralvan i am not talking about those people. I am talking about the people who use there children to get more benefits to spend on cigerattes and drink
@@jamesshone1677
15% m8, those are millions of people. (e.g. for Germany's 80 Million population thats 12 Million people with an IQ below 85), don't you think there might be some overlap in the two groups we are describing.
Just because you are too stupid to do productive work (sadly) doesn't mean you are too stupid to have children and receive benefits.
0 dislikes lez go
german goverment at its finest
It was kinda Tommy’s fault tho. He was about to go to college and his parents were unemployed and he’s gonna decide to waste several months playing video games all day. Like come on
isnt streaming lowest point of his life lol
Yeah but imagine spending 6 hours of your life doing absolutely nothing, for no good reason other than bureaucratic bullshit.
@@MaskofPoesy its a joke
