I think I have to keep it down to one, I've sort of gotten in trouble with the dutch government
and they are quite insistent on emptying my bank account.... Last winter/spring I had a job after graduating, and since it was less than 4 months I wasn't obliged to take out dutch health insurance (could stay on the french one from what I understood). But my contract got extended and I worked 4 months and 1 week. Thought it wouldn't matter. WRONG. Took out insurance in August since I'll be working here 4 years and they dug around. Well, I got fined for not having dutch insurance earlier (400€) and also have to make back payments all the way back to December 2010 (another 100€/month). Got to call on monday to try to plead my case as a poor stupid ill-informed foreigner (which I am)..... If it doesn't work I'm not going to see a penny of my september paycheck.
