    One way or another, the pandemic has put a lot of things in extreme disarray here and politicians are helping to destroy our industry because lobbying and their own pockets full of money are more important… the pandemic in particular has revealed the worst corruption among our politicians. Von der Leyen… the same at European level and now is the time when she has to face up. But it will come to nothing otherwise she wouldn’t have been re-elected…

    As far as quality is concerned… Well, the West (not just Germany) has outsourced a lot to China. Many people still make fun of the fact that the Chinese only copy and produce poor quality. But that has not been the case for a long time. They have left the West behind in many areas (even if there is still a lot of crap from China, of course). You can’t keep up with China, especially when it comes to prices. But well, you can get very good or better quality from China.

    Thank you for the detailed answer. I guess I had some misconceptions about high school then.

    Mh that’s not true about the 18 year age for work here, I have to say in retrospect. In my youth it was still common to distribute brochures etc. at the weekend around the age of ~14, mh internships still exist, but this is unpaid work, at ~16 years then an apprenticeship and from 18 years then in regular work (or depending on further university).

    Well, these predetermined breaking points can be found in all appliances. However, this is nothing new. The current problems at Miele are for other reasons. For example, pushing prices down as far as possible during production.
    Wave of layoffs
    It is questionable to what extent the wave of redundancies will take place
    Well
    as many have already left as a result.
    Another reason… After Germany had managed to turn “Made in Germany” into something positive, things went downhill again. Since many work steps are carried out in China or elsewhere and only the final work steps are carried out in Germany… Just enough to allow the label to be used legally. Our legislators should have done more. Why should you pay more for alleged German quality when most of it is not German quality?

    Lol sadly. The long life is a loss business. People only buy a new one as soon as the old one is scrap. Once the market is served, the problem of longevity arises and therefore no revenue. That’s why a lot of money has been invested in predetermined breaking points, which are usually designed for shortly after the warranty. (A lot of money, because it has to be achieved by material weakness or something else that cannot be proven. ) This means that there are always customers and therefore revenue. It’s stupid but unfortunately it has to be that way. In many other areas too.
