Bye Bye

 
Mural again by students of the HBK, taken... years ago and maybe long gone.
(The weather is too shit#y to check).
 
The fishes have lost, clearly, and these two guys?

 
Whilst another tries to keep them all? 

 
As if I saw my life today years ago?
Most, who have certainly no power, want to keep me.

Yet thanks to BK, as P calls her (for "Blöde Kuh", "dumb cow", which is actually mean as cows are gentle and sincere), I lost my job.
As Elizabeth said rightfully, ... no time for self-pity, life will go on, but it is sad to leave a job promised till end of September TODAY!

I have to take 5 days off, so.... I leave this dangerous place.

Dangerous?

Just look what P has to look out for!!!


This is Emy. She is black. And loves to keep P from working by taking her... black chair.
She, as P, is from Turkey. They both call Germany their home.
At  least she has her eyes open as hint and the ears over the edge. Funny girl that.
Often purred into the mike for me 😍

I once found my glasses... with my butt. Emy sure is brave! Or... you decide.
Reckon I maybe really at least found a friend for real here.

I am sad I have to leave.
N, from Johannesburg, asked me if I know where the train station in Braunschweig is (duuuuude!) and that you have to walk through a tunnel to get to Siemens Mobility.
He is a funny guy, always grabs the phone in an instant (South Africa is but an hour ahead of us) lived here years ago before murals were popular so I sent him these.

He was thrilled:


V Friday couldn´t believe it, either. He said, "we schnack on Monday".
Must be also a fish head by heart, "schnacken" is another Hamburg word for chat.
Slang, btw... River, if you read along... Pineapple in German is called ... 🍍 "Ananas", from Ananas comosus but any fish head will also go with Pinöpel 😁 - just point at what you want!
And don´t be afraid of (aka chicken) of the chicken you will find at the Hamburg Fish-Market. They are real.
But harmless.

I "met" so many nice people at Siemens and no one (but one) made me feel like being but an external again.

Can someone throw an anchor?

Henry 🦁 is lazy.
He says black cousin Emy from pic above can say "Hi" to you today 😘
Must maybe ask N if they have murals in SA, too!
Funny btw... one (German) cousin lived in Johannesburg ages ago.
It´s a small world. And I never expected South African people speaking no accent!
We are one world and English is the key.
I hope my Niece will get that! (She hates English lessons at school) .

Speaking of:

Bertiebo said...

I don't think I understand. But it is beautifully painted. And as far as you're concerned: hold on and good luck

Amypie71 said...

hmm I'm trying to work that mural/painting out, but it looks like the guys at the front are off in a hurry.

Amila said...

This mural shares a strong message.It is colourful too.

River said...

I am glad my Lola is not fully black, she used to sleep on my chair at night, if she wasn't in bed with me, and many mornings I would pull out the chair to sit without looking, but always noticed her white feet and chest.

Iris Flavia said...

Kathy, yes, funny find huh?!

____

Bertiebo, it is a weird mural somehow, I just treid to make sense of it... or... not?

____

Amy, but why, and the fishes are dead already! Maybe that is why!

___

Amila, I struggle with the message a bit.

River, good on Lola, LOL! P has two black cats! Dangerous!

Sami said...

So sorry it all went too quickly and you didn't stay until September with them. There is a saying "when one door closes another opens" so I'm sure something better will come along soon.
I'm sure there are murals in Johannesburg.
Interesting mural, thanks for participating in Monday Murals Iris.

Iris Flavia said...

Sami, yes, I might stay in railway even! Might! Another company indeed is interested.

Tom said...

...Iris, I hope that a new door opens for you!

Iris Flavia said...

Tom, thank you, that would be a challenge, but great!

Jeanie said...

I hope you and P can keep in touch and maintain a friendship, even though you are elsewhere. And others, too -- contacts are always good to have but friends are even better.

What an interesting mural!

Bill said...

There is a door and it has your name on it, I'm sure.

DVArtist said...

Interesting mural. Yes, I have found my glasses with my butt too. LOL Have a nice day.

William Kendall said...

An unusual mural.

That's an interesting mural. I'm still trying to figure out what's going on there. :)
(Oh gosh! I've got murals I can put on my blog. 😬Dunno when I'm going to get to them. 😬

Emy is in dangerous territory. I can imagine the kind of scare she can give somebody who missed her camouflaged figure, there. 😁
