Trust and respect are some of the core principles in Swiss education and society. There are those well known newspapers stands that always amaze tourists. They are not locked nor monitored but people still pay for the newspaper.

For the restaurants it can be true but most places will know what you had only because the cash register system works like that (like they take the order on a phone that automatically sends everything to the kitchen and till). It’s mostly because all the systems available on the market works like that.

But as everywhere, things are changing for the worse, there’s more and more violence, disrespect etc.

Fun fact, I once had French friends visiting and they saw a field where you can take fruits yourself, weight them and pay the according price. No human supervision, no cameras. They were amazed and told me "In France we wouldn’t pay for the fruits, steal the money box AND the weighting machine"

That is most likely the right answer.

I’m in Switzerland and we have vending machines (not as cool as the Japanese ones tho) because we walk past them everyday.

They are generally on the pavement near post offices, at train stations and other large public transportation places. For a time there was cigarettes vending machines near bars but I think those are now forbidden.

Not sure about the thumb one but for screws with only have:

• Visser : sens des aiguilles d’une montre (clockwise)
• Dévisser : sens contraire des aiguilles d’une montre (anti clockwise)

I want to cry now.

75% of people working shifts around or inside an aircraft are alcoholics. Never before or at work, but days off are a shit show.

I have a French accent so I say data.

We don’t really have dates in my culture. Either we like each other and hookup or we don’t. So when you finally go to the restaurant or whatever, it is with someone you already know and not a total stranger.

But I’m referring to IRL meetups, where you meet people during social events like a party, going to a bar etc (I do that as an introvert that loves being alone, I just don’t go out every night).

I’ve never tried apps like Tinder so maybe the first rendez-vous could be considered a date. I don’t know and don’t plan to discover it.

It’s in French but the lyrics are a cover letter for a job, telling the hard truth about how she is unhappy to apply to an unknown company for a job she doesn’t want to do, only because she needs money.

Nice, it’s probably the ancestor of the TOSA which is the same thing without the flywheel, and also from Switzerland.
