Swiss II

I was reflecting back on the visit to the City hall yesterday, and while the guy was rattling off all the conditions and forms and whatsit to me who tried to be nice and friendly, I was thinking that this is a typical guy acting like a king in his own little kingdom. He has all the cards, and I'm just a minion, a nobody, a non-wanted.

It makes me even more want to fight this, and become equal to him. It's not like I desperately need this passport, oh excuse me, citizenship, it's not like I'm a refugee, but I want to beat this mentality. I want ze Swiss to realize (all of them, not just the clever ones) that foreigners are needed in order to make Switzerland stay alive.

Anyway, I was being nice and when he stated that I needed a piece of paper to say that I'm not a crimimal, I started to ask if that's what is needed from all countries...and here he interrupted me to say "oh yes from all countries in the world"...when I wanted to ask if it was from all countries where I lived. He then put on half a smile (not sure, but think so) and confirmed it was only from Switzerland. For the rest I'm only asked to put my signature on another piece of paper to say I'm criminal-free.

Ze Swiss and their sense of humour. And I was thinking back, yes maybe once I was speeding (when I was still driving), I may have crossed the street despite there being a red man (coming to think of it, why not a woman?), I remember peeing once in public (but I was about 17 so maybe not relevant anymore?).

Nah, this one I nailed. Every day I'm gonna attack another request, so who knows what's to come?
