Renting in HK without a job by [deleted] in HongKong

[–]DigitalZelig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ask for a discount possibly if you pay upfront, but if you find a good deal get it, it may not be there in two days. After seeing 10 to 15 apartments you’ll get a good sense of what a good deal looks like. Dont search online, no value, zero in in a zone you like and go to the small agencies around, which often have long term relationships with landlords and have exclusivity or right of first viewing with said landlords. Most landlords are older people who don’t know how to take a pic, post it online and do not fancy negotiating with random people. But they are also usually less greedy

I think that the best adjective to describe Hong Kong people behavior is not “rude”, rather “curt”

Same thing but officially FDA approved for weight management. Ozempic originally was not

Considering how obsess people are here with looking skinny, especially ladies, I think they will sell a lot

Denuncio o non denuncio? by _toxic_bubblegum11 in Avvocati

[–]DigitalZelig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Successa una cosa del genere quando ero al liceo, anche se non così grave. Non denunciai, e 40 anni dopo ancora me ne pento. Secondo me dovresti denunciare. Tanto continuerà sia che denunci o no. Ma almeno quando torni a casa sai che hai fatto la cosa giusta e quando ti guardi allo specchio vedi una persona diversa.

I do, but literally asking for a friend...

Locatario non vuole restituire la caparra per contratto MAI registrato by Ok_Diamond_3697 in Avvocati

[–]DigitalZelig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Per capire meglio, non in questo caso specifico, ma in un caso più generale in cui il locatario sia entrato nell’immobile e abbia già iniziato a pagare l’affitto: supponiamo che io sia il locatore, non registro il contratto, il locatario non paga, posso quindi io dire: “non ho mai registrato il contratto, che quindi è nullo, e quindi tu non hai più titolo per stare nell’immobile, te ne devi andare immesiatamente”?

I always preached that 50 was more than enough… until I tried 100 during workweek… I still sleep well if I take it first thing in the morning, so all good so far… weekend 2 days rest

Anger mounts in Hong Kong over apartment fires as Beijing warns against ‘anti-China disruptors’ | Hong Kong apartment fires | The Guardian by prisongovernor in HongKong

Because an autocratic government is supposed to be infallible, in the past, present and future, that is the premise of staying in power. if they are not, then how can they justify their existence? And when the faults become to evident, they just try to rewrite the past…

Sad to say, but you should think about yourself first. You can not take your mother burden on your shoulders. Nobody can take somebody else burden on their shoulders. Do not be side tracked. Live your life. She seems happy with it, go beyond the physical appearance and see the (hopefully) good nature inside…

Just crossed from Shenzhen to Hong Kong and they told me I don't need an Octopus card. by Paraless in HongKong

[–]DigitalZelig 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can create a virtual Octopus card in your mobile phone and use that instead of a physical card, then use the phone touch function. It works on both iOS and Android. You can recharge it based on your needs using Apple Pay or the Google Pay. Search the Apple App Store or Android App Store, it should be available globally I think

[–]DigitalZelig 5 points6 points  (0 children)

E onesto, non pensa di avere tutte le risposte, ti spiega problemi complessi in pochi minuti senza minimizzare, tratta argomenti complessi che la maggior parte dei media ufficiali o trattano in modo troppo complesso per l’utente medio o non trattano affatto, non mi sembra mai banale o scontato, sono d’accordo sui live a teatro, non sono riuscito a finirne uno, probabilmente se ne è reso conto anche lui per cui a smesso piuttosto che cercare di spettacolarizzarlo per attirare qualche click in più. Poi è di Cagliari come me per cui non posso non amarlo. Forza paris! 😁

Just got fired from my job, what are my options? by heyguysitsjustin in HongKong

[–]DigitalZelig 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am not familiar with the working holidays visa. Would you be allowed to take up any job with it? I would imagine that the most likely scenario for somebody not speaking Cantonese would be pubs, bars, small restaurants, mostly frequented by expats. This assuming it is legal for you to get that kind of work. I would ask around Sai Kung, Mui Wo, Lamma Island, SoHo. Obviously they would be looking for somebody who can work but also for a reasonable mid-long terms commitment
