Re: German word of the day
Mietschuldenfreiheitsbescheinigung (one word). It basically means a document stating that you have no debts towards your landlord and that you always paid your rent on time.

Re: Moving out of Germany
I handed over my old apartment last week. I didn‘t paint it. All walls are white anyway. My landlord didn‘t say a thing about it. My contract has no clause as well about painting or renovating. Often, these clauses are void. The Bundesgerichtshof decided on these contracts in recent years. She menti...

Re: Why are you happy today?
I’m happy, because today I received the keys of my new apartment in Nympfenburg-Neuhausen, Munich. I had to leave my current one in Westend due to Eigenbedarf. I lived there almost 20 years. Time for some change. After I started applying for a new apartment, I received an acceptance of the landlord ...

Lilium found an investor last minute and employees will return to their jobs. Some good news just before X-Mas.

Re: Job situation in Germany
Indeed. That‘s many jobs. I read it will happen in a socially acceptable manner. Also, other German companies will shed many jobs like ThyssenKrupp. That‘s worrying. On the other hand, I‘m a tax payer and tired of bailing out the German car industry. Remember Abwrackprämie and the endless Kurzarbeit...

Re: Amazon Fresh ceases to deliver [in the Munich area] in Germany
My local Edeka has good deals on beer every week. There is always 1-2 brands for Helles on sale and 1 brand of Weißbier. I typically save 6 to 8 Euros on a crate. I don’t think that Getränkedienste offer this as well, but I might be wrong. I’m not willing to pay €20 for a crate of beer.

Re: Amazon Fresh ceases to deliver [in the Munich area] in Germany
I have no car as well, but I own a bike. I put the crate on the back
. The only thing is that I live on the 3rd floor without an elevator.

Re: What made you smile today? :)
IMG_5917.jpeg We have many workers in one of the apartments which is completely being renovated for some weeks now. My neighbour below put on a sign in different languages about the house door. The last sentence is hilarious „Du nix lassen auf Tür! Sonst kommen böse Mann. Wenn Du machen Du zahlen!“

Re: Transportaton research - Women and Finta community
Remembers me of a business trip to Dubai. I was waiting outside my apartment trying to get a taxi. A female taxi driver was driving around the block. I tried to get this taxi, but she didn‘t stop when I waived her. After she drove like 3 rounds around the block and I waived the whole time, she brief...
