Klingt bekannt. Bin 2012 für eine W2 auf Zeit nach Berlin gezogen und gleich in die Nähe des BER, dessen Eröffnung zum 2. Mal verschoben wurde. Als die 5 Jahre abgelaufen waren, hatte ich zum Glück einen anderen Job, der BER war aber immer noch nicht fertig. Dafür 2020, als niemand fliegen konnte 😎

I was proudest of an article in Current Sociology about Europe’s remaining colonies in the Caribbean. My students however were impressed to hear I published two short articles in a magazine they all read - one on the same topic as the above and one on the exploitation of seasonal workers in the EU 🤷🏻‍♀️
