Dude,that is not done in the Reichstag,that is far too inefficient.
We of course have our own government department for that, the Bundeswegbeleuchtungsreparaturamt (Federal footpath lighting repair authority) which is part of the Bundesimmobilienverwaltung(Federal real estate authority).
There are of course similar institutions on the state level (besides Saxony/Sachsen, it seems they like to live in the dark) like the Landesweglichtverwaltung (State path light administration) of Baden-Wurttemberg.
Some larger communities have similar agencies,but most simply have a commissary for it (Dorfweglichtbeauftragter), and yes, they are mostly named Hans, Dieter or sometimes Horst.
This is actually a very sensitive topic as the people suffered a lot during the war time black outs and therefore wanted to make sure that never happens again. (Besides Saxony, as I said,they prefer to keep it like 45 in some places).
With a thing on a spring that is an injury lawyer’s wet dream? Also that thing is not cordoned off, it’s for general use, even though privately constructed.
All I can say is American expats are regularly gob-struck by how “unsafe” our playgrounds are. Where “unsafe” means fun and a place where kids can learn to judge risks and develop independence.
Are you even allowed to let a kid play there while you’re inside or is the CPS going to drag you to court for it?
Is this in Germany? This looks very German to me and I can’t even tell why.
Yes it’s Germany. Hessen.
Somewhere in the Reichstag: “Mein gott! A gartenlicht ist kaput somewhere! Hans! Schnellschnellschnell!!!”

Can’t even tell if you’re messing with us or if this is completely true.
What? Messing with you? That would imply humour, which is inefficient and therefore forbidden by law!
This is scandalous!
Im German and I can’t even tell if he’s joking.
We heff eckssidentally repläced wan bulb with a kaltweiß kind, Wolfgang get ze shotgun
Schrotflinte heißt das
Haha, sauber :D
It’s the shape of the building
Looks just as plausible to be in the US.
Playground and bikes
Those things are at apartments in the US…
And risk being sued for medical expenses?
Yes? There’s an apartment building I drive by all the time that has a playground.

You know those spring things are in public park playgrounds, right? My daughter played on them when she was younger all the time.

Nah, if it were the US, that playground would be a parking lot.
How many Germans does it take to change a light bulb?
One, they are efficient and don’t have humour.
