Thank you for your series on German life for an immigrant. I have a few EU born and raised friends and they are astounded by the amount of misinformation we (in the US) get about EU life.

I have a Swiss friend (Basel), now in his early 80’s. We worked together in a Swiss pharmaceutical company here in the States and he was always amazed that a HS grad in the EU was often technically competent to compete with a US college grad for an entry level laboratory job. Is it your sense that is still valid?

Thanks again,

Barry
