Instructions for immigrating to Austria

Before you immigrate to Austria, you must first understand the local customs of Austria, so what should you pay attention to? Yes, I'm here to sort out the instructions for emigrating to Austria.

First, Austrians emphasize mutual respect and will not interfere in other people's private affairs, but they also expect others not to interfere in their private lives.

In other words, how a person lives in Austria is nobody's business, and there will be no pressure from family or society to interfere in his personal life as in China. However, when Australians feel that their lives are disturbed, they usually take action to defend their rights.

Many music students have experience in this field. Take practicing the piano as an example. Although the law stipulates that you can practice from 8 am to 8 pm 10, the law also guarantees everyone's right not to be disturbed by noise. If some students just insist on their own freedom to practice the piano and ignore the rights and interests of others, then disputes are inevitable. Generally speaking, we should first try to communicate with our neighbors and reach an agreement. If this method doesn't work, there is only one way, moving.

As we all know, the scope of freedom does not infringe on the freedom of others, but it may cost practice.

Beethoven's piano practice is not popular, and he keeps moving, so there are many "Beethoven houses" around Vienna today.

Second, in Austria, many people like to fight against injustice in public places.

Sometimes people think that Australians are nosy, especially elderly women. Children running around in the supermarket may be reprimanded by the old woman, or even forced to take a lesson on how to educate their children by their parents.

Austria's moral standard can be seen from the following example: on the first day of the euro circulation, a banker in Graz mistakenly exchanged a purse worth more than 1000 euros for more than 10 local residents, but they all took the money back to the bank automatically within a few hours.

Third, here, "people" are the most important and valuable, so the salary is very high.

Most people in China are used to the situation that "things cost money and services are free". In Europe, this concept will change.

As long as you spend other people's time and energy, you naturally have to pay. For example, when workers are asked to repair electrical appliances, it is generally not only necessary to calculate wages and parts, but also the time spent on the journey. Even if things can't be repaired, you have to pay the inspection fee. Usually, a bill mainly includes wages and parts. In the case that many old machines fail, it is more cost-effective to buy new ones.

Generally speaking, consumers pay about € 100 per hour for technical professionals. As long as they find someone, they will jump at this price. This "people-oriented" concept may be hard for China people to accept.

Some shops in Austria are closed at night.

Overseas Chinese often complain that they don't know what to do at night, because all the shops in Austria are closed after six o'clock, and there is no place to go except for cultural activities, such as concerts or theaters, cinemas or restaurants. Most locals go to bed early and get up early, so generally speaking, you can't call anyone after 9 pm.

Most people in China don't understand why they don't open their doors at night.

Austria and most European countries have the so-called "Ladenschlussgesetz", which stipulates the business hours. This law is actually not a commercial law, but a social law. Its main purpose is to let all people rest at night and have a home life.

Because of this rule, parents are at home at night, so it is natural that few unattended teenagers wander the streets, which has a very positive effect on social stability. Moreover, because all shops are closed, there is no such problem as money being earned by others.

Basically, it closes at six o'clock from last Monday to Friday, at twelve o'clock on Saturday, and at five o'clock in the afternoon. It is closed all day on Sundays and national holidays, and most shops open at 9: 00 at the latest on weekdays. In recent years, the government has relaxed the business hours policy, and businesses can adjust their business hours within a limited scope.

From the perspective of national economy, most of the things a person wants to buy will not increase or decrease because of the length of the store's business hours, just as the amount of toilet paper to be used in a month is fixed, so the turnover will not decrease because of closing at six o'clock. With this rule, all consumers will naturally arrange time to buy things after they get used to it, and businesses will make money as usual, so everyone can have a rest.
