Discussion forum overview
Yes, it's allowed. Yes a Swiss GmbH can have contracts with non-Swiss companies.
To my knowledge, there are no "contractor accountants". You'll need a local accountant in Zurich, or Zug. To set up the company, you'll need to talk to a…
All financially supported by Swiss companies? :eek:
Or how did this get into this thread?
So Robert de Niro's video went viral. The only thing it made clear to me; The guy is on the same level as Trump. In fact, he's even ahead of…

Will Trump get reelected
I see, the last sentence in that post of mine caught the attention. I should have known better than to drop that in this day and age.
My emphasis was more on her strange idea that it is of any importance to the world whether she…
You're barking up the wrong tree.
Frankly you're getting quite annoying after what can only be intentional misinterpretation of what I wrote in #58. Only an imbecile could honestly think that "OP will have to prove the abuse" means…

Unilateral Holiday Cut?
The legal minimum is 20 days (a few more for employees < 20 years of age), so they can't go below that.
Afaik, anything beyond that is at the discretion of an organization and that includes the extra days for "Kader".
Everything else…
haha no. But I'm very sensitive to the altitude change. For example, when did visit the Jungfraujoch i fainted due to the thin air up there. I live in Zurich which is only like 450m above sea level, but a 425m difference nonetheless
If you are posting to me then this was/is not my basic medical insurance.
Indeed the supplemental says that it covers drugs not included in the basic if prescribed by a doctor but there are also lists. :eek:
It is not an open…
Bid the highest you're willing to pay at any time before the end. If someone snipes you, they've driven the price higher than you were willing to pay.
Competitive overbidding on eBay is no different to getting carried away in a real…

Lidl shopping bag
An idea I really like in my new home: Luxembourg made a nationwide campaign in 2004 and since then do all supermarkets stop selling their own bags. They sell a 100% recycled bag from the local recycling business. Best part: Whenever it is…
Yes, the Gemeinde Stadt Zürich stopped offering Tageskarten some years ago. Apparently the costs of administrating the whole thing didn't seem worthwhile. The decison is odd maybe, seeing most other Gemeindes don't seem to have this…
In my experiences they really like things local Americana i guess i would call it, some thing hard to find say here in CH. And on the theme of local.
For me, a T-shirt from a local Radio Station has worked as well as items from your…
Agree, but what term would be used for fixing or reattaching an existing piece?
Also, just thinking that do do some of the other jobs it may have been necessary to remove the stand and then to 'montier' it :-)
Also, do kickstands…
Will try and get a long this year (I always seem to forget it is on until these EF reminders :) ) . The list of systems that will be there this year looks very interesting.
Note to self - Must enter a note in the diary and email them in…
I have lived in both countries and well, to sum it up:
- Amsterdam isn't the Netherlands. I experienced the Dutch life style, Amsterdam in particular is pretty different... just as Paris isn't and average place in France either.
- the…
If it is 400v, then yes, you just have to change the wall socket too, but it's nothing more than changing the wall socket, i.e. no special wiring.
I guess it's like this...

but if yours is 230 then no…

Swiss Gipfeli Croissant
Somehow reminded me of the Woody Allen joke...two elderly women are at a restaurant and one of 'em says, "Boy, the food at this place is really terrible." The other one says, "Yeah, I know; and such small portions."
I know most of you probably know, but you need to factor in 7.7% Swiss import on the entire cost, including fitting. I only recently found out that car service & repair costs are subject to duty, including labour.
I live 25 mins from…
80+ quid for a torque wrench? I think you may have a nut loose.
Thing is, there are different needs for different usage models. If you've forked out several thousand notes for some exotic beastie weighing just a couple of kilos then I…
He is conventionné, which means that he charges the standard rate that is reimbursed by the public health system in France. You can find a list of the prices here:

First, thank you for your answer!
Could you elaborate on the tax? in some website I read they are paid in France, some in Swizerland. Also many confusing terms like "taxed at base".
Would be great if someone have more insight about…

Employment in Vaud
The course I attended was unstructured. Everyday we were just gathered together, given a topic and left alone. I did not know French at all. Before the course I managed to mimic French with my English, exchange "I" with "Je", "You" with…
How much more obvious could it possibly be?
Provided one speaks the language.
I think I would like to implement the word "crapeli" into SwissGerman.
For the Swiss Gipfeli. (Not my idea but flow23's).
But seeing the stations are in the air, they can easily fit in above existing facilities at said stations, with some modifications of course to provide access to the platforms.
I don't think the strains on cables are an issue. The…

Hallo from Indonesian
Good day to you all,
I have recently moved to the French side of Switzerland. Getting a hang of the Swiss way of life... Must say its not the easiest.
I lived in UK, Germany and now in Switzerland. Travelled quite a bit around the…
You're welcome.
No I don't have a straight forward answer how to sort out which version you would like/would be best for you ;) Also I am not a insurance agent.
According to this (German but hey, you quote Polo Hofer :)), you…
Maybe you can find something for yourself amongst startups? You did not write anything about your skills. Can you help in office IT, customer support, sales? I hope that startups may be more willing to hire you quickly as they usually…

BTW, if you are a member of Coop's hello family then you can print pdf from this page sbb reduction and get the junior card for 20 CHF.
Actually, nobody asked me at sbb if I'm a member... I just gave them printed gutschein.
Hoi Tom,
I'm thinking of installing the Aqara switches from Xiaomi. Tested one and works beautifully. Works without Internet too.
However, no European or US certifications for the switch yet (only Chinese ones).
