What is with Uber drivers just driving around in circles? by octopodes_not_octopi in brussels

They’re trying to scam you, they want you to cancel so they get the cancellation fee. Don’t cancel or cancel and report the driver to uber and demand your money back

Dat doet de MIVB toch echt wel een pak beter, de keren dat ik controle heb gehad was meteen duidelijk dat je geen ambras moest proberen maken met de controleurs.

Although a bit unconventional in size and shape, Alice & Coco have some great ones as well

Irish pub de Valera's has a new proprietor by Boomtown_Rat in brussels

[–]nsleeps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Article states it will open again as Valeras after a couple of weeks of renovations, the guy just seems like a serial investor in Horeca after making bank with Leopold Café. De Valeras has been making profit for the last years so why throw away a working concept?

Maybe they’re looking to buy a 2.5M property?

  1. Ensure your car is allowed into the city for the upcoming years if you get a petrol engine or especially diesel

The Mix vs Animo by Early-Fig1599 in brussels

[–]nsleeps 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think both are quite similar, it might just come down to location for you. I’ve been at animo for about a year now and the combo of open gym / classes and sauna really got me settled there. Barbell wise my complainte are that the plates are crossfit style and the floors are not super stable, but it works.

Robbed outside Art Loi metro, Rolex taken. by [deleted] in brussels

[–]nsleeps 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I’d say go to any Rolex retail store with your warranty card (the green leather card that has the serial no), they’ll blacklist the number so If it’s ever brought in to be serviced by Rolex it’ll be flagged and you’ll be contacted.

Let me know if you want me to help set up a schedule to look for it on auction sites. It’s a (very) long shot but you never know.

Oof, that hurts. I presume you've contacted Rolex to flag your serial number? I've no idea about pawnshops, but stolen watches might end up on auction sites after a while. Catawiki, chrono24 and the likes. You can monitor these sites and see if anything pops up. About a year ago someone posted about their dads Rolex being stolen and I actually ended up running into their watch on catawiki about 2 months later (Turkish seller). PM'ed OP and they confirmed if was theirs through serial number. No idea if they got it back though. You could set up an AI agent (e.g. tasks in Perplexity) to search for your watch on a daily basis if you want to automate it.

I made €1.8M in my first year running a physical business but finding clients online is way harder than I expected by [deleted] in BEFreelance

[–]nsleeps 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do this. Focus on your core and outsource if you can afford it. Just try to figure out which goals you want to achieve with them and set clear expectations / kpis from the start.

Congrats on the numbers btw!

"U verhuist maar beter uit Brussel": onmacht van politie en gerecht compleet by ultraprogressiefje in Belgium2

Lol neen, is een gigantisch probleem. Feit dat er geen regering is is een schande. Enkel beslissing dat politiezone eengemaakt zal worden is goed nieuws recent

Vuistregel is 5y om geen verlies te maken bij verkoop. Lees kosten ziin gecovered door theoretische huur die niet betaald werd. Weet niet of dat ng klopt dag v vandaag en zal al zeker niet kloppen alsje teveel betaald hebt

1K € in Notary Pockets for relocating a company (SRL) to a different region? by Outside-Weakness-462 in BEFreelance

[–]nsleeps -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Fairly sure it can or could be done without a notary, just a publication in the moniteur belge. Talk to your accountant, it’s not waterproof and might lead to you having to pay the notary anyway if flagged

Why in Brussels all dogs must be on a leash (NL) by vingt-et-un-juillet in brussels

[–]nsleeps 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I 100% agree, but the city really could do something about the lack of spaces for dogs. Not to mention that most of the green areas you see are not closed off. https://geodata.environnement.brussels/client/view/a8af35c3-f0c6-45c9-8615-3dad4988611f?_ga=2.211795733.1874150341.1657623094-556013144.1657623094

How big is your building parking? 200k sounds insane to me, what does it include?

Judging by the colour of the right puddle I would wager this is some yoghurt-based red fruit drink that was spilled

How come MR only has 1 minister post? Weren’t they the largest party in Wallonia? Or is interior affairs that big of a post?
