Re: Newbie to start in swiss

Welcome to the forum. Something tells me that your name destines you to a very successful career, but I also have the feeling you have got something the wrong way round. I hope that it will not cause your downfall.

Meh - you're in banking, not teaching, spelling and names are not really that important... are they? :/

That is, only if you do not mind sending money to the wrong person because of a misspelling in the recipient's name.

Re: Newbie to start in SWITZERLAND

Welcome to the forum. I have only been here for a few months but already find that life is fantastic here. And this forum is great too - has answers to almost everything - but beware of irony - some of the member of this forum seem to be rather adept at pointing out the flaws in others, and their posts... but this is just an impression, of course
