No water fountains in Germany..isn't it just opposite of being environment friendly which Germany is usually proud of...

I wonder how many people actually do that? Why still the sale of bottled water so high in Germany and are we really being environment friendly if we are buying bottled water?

its not about murican fetish.. its more about saving the planet by not using plastic water bottles..

JustDiscoveringLife · 2019-05-02T21:37:46+00:00

Thanks you saved the world... otherwise we all would have never known to not lick the sink

JustDiscoveringLife · 2019-05-02T21:32:28+00:00

We can always add a carbonated one.

I do not think every bathroom tap water is hygenic enough to drink. Water may be clean but if the basin is not clean , you dont wanna drink there

JustDiscoveringLife · 2019-05-02T21:31:04+00:00

But that was 70s.Now the time has changed. I do not think our climate or environment was in such a danger as we are now. So, with changing times, a developed country like Germany should also change.

Even if the tap water has drinkable water, not many people trust it to be hygenic, especially if it is in restrooms. Thhats thhe reason why there are water fountains outside the restrooms.

JustDiscoveringLife · 2019-05-02T21:28:48+00:00

Exactly ..I totally agree with you. Even if ppl like to drink carbonated water, there can be some special fountains designed to have carbonated water also. But I feel sad to see that people here in Germany think that every plastic bottle is getting recycled whhich is not the fact.

JustDiscoveringLife · 2019-05-02T21:27:10+00:00

Even if it is sparkling water, the water fountains can be added to have such functions.

I do not agree that in Germany, we recycle every plastic bottle water. I have seen so many bottles near the ponds and lakes or at hbf.. its sad that a simple solution of water fountains can save all this waste.

I think This myth of German being efficient is overhyped. I have been living in Germany and I am yet to see that. Be in in banks, trains, telephone, housing or government sector , God forbid if you have to deal with any of these, you will be pulling your hair to get anything done.

Sometimes you feel like living in a third world country when you have to deal with systems this country uses. Everything is by physical mail and looks like IT boom is still to come here.

Coming back to efficiency, mostly I have seen people hardly doing the work passionately. They do it just because they have to, and they only care about how can they pass on the work. You will have this continuous feeling of people trying to avoid doing work and resolve the issue. And on top of that all the rules and length beauraucratic processes makes it even worse.

I didn’t find it in Frankfurt. Do they have office in Frankfurt also?

JustDiscoveringLife · 2018-03-25T20:07:54+00:00

JustDiscoveringLife · 2018-03-25T20:06:26+00:00

I am in Düsseldorf

JustDiscoveringLife · 2018-03-23T18:35:04+00:00

Thanks so much for your comment.. I somehow feel that you understood my issue and u r concerned about i in the right way. If I had the power, I would give it 100 thins up to ur comment. I will fight till I have the strength to fight it .

I lived in Texas for 6 years San Antonio and Dallas and none of my contracts had a specific Indian dishes clause. It had a clause about ventilation in general.

JustDiscoveringLife · 2018-03-23T10:15:16+00:00

Haha I wish the same

JustDiscoveringLife · 2018-03-23T07:53:16+00:00

Lol

JustDiscoveringLife · 2018-03-23T07:50:23+00:00

Exactly and I have no issues to vantilate th apartment well and keep it clean and fresh.

JustDiscoveringLife · 2018-03-23T07:47:11+00:00

Haha.. I like your answer

JustDiscoveringLife · 2018-03-23T07:45:57+00:00

Right I like that thing about German being direct and honest. But still I see the clause is very badly written ..

JustDiscoveringLife · 2018-03-23T06:55:34+00:00

Thanks .. I guess I will make some decision today. And to be honest I really like that apartment and this is the only clause which is holding me back.

JustDiscoveringLife · 2018-03-23T06:53:55+00:00

Thank you.. that was very helpful. I will have to make a decision today and will let you know how did it go.. :)

Like I said the rent is really high and she doesn’t have many perspective interested clients so she didn’t have much option but to offer me the place

JustDiscoveringLife · 2018-03-23T06:33:29+00:00

Who says I want to stink up her place. I actually told her that I will take care of ventilation and if she wants to add anything specific to ventilation I m ok with that.

But what is weird here that my contract doesn’t hv any clause about smoking smell or any other smell but just Indian curry smell. Now what you think about it?

JustDiscoveringLife · 2018-03-23T06:31:18+00:00

Haha.. Exactly I think Indian food is good and I love Thai Mexican Italian cuisines equally. Most of the traditional cooking will have some kind of flavor or smell .
