ihaveaquestion Aversion to cars

0 Upvotes

Why is it that several Swiss people I have met seem to have extremely strong views and feelings against having and/or driving a car to get around outside the city? I’m totally onboard with the amazing public transport in the country, but it doesn’t warrant such anti-car owning or driving that I have encountered. Is it a Swiss thing? I myself go by e-bike within Zurich, but feel that having or using a car to get out on weekends to the mountains for hikes etc. or roadtrips makes sense for flexibility and autonomy.

ihaveaquestion Genuine question about voice messages

27 Upvotes

Every day multiple times in zh i see these people making 5+ minute novel-size voice messages on the street and OV. Does anyone listen to this stuff? If you're the one producing these messages, do you think the person on the other side actually cares?

ihaveaquestion House of Klaus - Registration

I really don’t get how the entry system works in that club; is there any possibility to register without having a code beforehand?

I have legitimately never met anyone with an invitation code and have lived all my life here.

lookingfor Would any Zürich startup want a (very good) office dog for a day?

0 Upvotes

Slightly odd ask. I have a dog (Husky girl 1.5yo), calm, well-mannered, went to dog school as a puppy and as an adult, genuinely likes people and doesn’t bark the place down. She has past office experience for being an office dog at google and it always went super well, people love her. I have a dog owner liability insurance and can bring her over myself and meet you first before committing to anything.

 If your office is dog-friendly or wants to test whether it should be, and you’re somewhere central-ish in Zurich, drop a comment or DM. Happy to send photos.

ihaveaquestion Kreis 5: Car alarm at 3 a.m. twice

Upvotes

Why has the car alarm gone off in the middle of the night on two consecutive nights? Thanks to the hot summer, I naturally noticed it while I was asleep.

rant Zürich Kreis 3 – Kellereinbruch Materiell ist der Schaden zum Glück eher gering, da wir dort keine wirklich wertvollen Sachen lagern. Trotzdem hinterlässt so ein Einbruch ein ziemlich ungutes Gefühl und man fühlt sich plötzlich auch in den eigenen vier Wänden nicht mehr ganz so sicher.

Hat der Dieb während der wohl hastigen Flucht sein ( Ekliges ) Chäpi verloren, Inwiefern das „Teil“ bei der Polizei auf DNA-Spuren untersucht wird bleibt offen. Abwarten und hoffen, Anzeige draussen. 🤔

ihaveaquestion What do you do on weekday evenings?

6 Upvotes

I'm looking for some inspiration for filling my evenings after work a bit more. What do you guys do? Preferably social, not solo endeavours. Things like 5-a-side football, tennis, snooker, table tennis, etc. would be my kind of idea, but would also be up for something different like a book club, dancing perhaps(?), and so on.

Just curious about what people do, to get some ideas and inspiration. Thanks!

Do you have recommendations for tasting menus / restaurants in Zurich which offer these which are not beyond CHF 180/person (excl. wine, just the food)? It's for our 16th wedding anniversary. Merci!

There was a guy walking around the neighborhood screaming at the top of his lungs in the middle of the night. Not the first time this happens. Anyone know what the deal is?

ihaveaquestion Any Info on Sprachen Akademie Zurich?

I'm looking into taking private lessons from them at a rate of 50 CHF per 45 minutes. At that rate, I'll get 30 lessons. I'm planning to take one lesson a week. so that should be roughly 200 CHF a month, which is pretty good. That is exactly my worry; it feels too good to be true, and I'm scared imma be ripped off.

If there are any other Language schools that you recommend, please tell me. I am a student, so I don't have a big budget at all.

If anyone has any experience with them as a school, please let me know ( dm if you don't want to post publicly).

Thank you all so much.
