Gotta say, this is a first for me. An office that wants to assume responsibility for something they don't currently manage instead of shifting it off their desk to someone (anyone) else's.

That is odd, isn't it? It's not as if the Ordnungsamt has a shortage of stuff to do in Berlin.

I hope they just realise it's important, but maybe they just want their cut of the protection money? No, seriously, these people seem pretty good, they are always there talking to you.

Spättis & gambling are one thing, but what about the nail parlours, massage parlours, and pole dancing bars? Does anyone check up to make sure there's no human trafficking going on?
