WATER CURSES
``
Avey Tare was probably referring to the flat in which the lest of my life is spent (for sure). But that does not mean that the neighbor on the first floor has the right to switch off the water supply to the building without any notice?
A brief history of water in my life ``
Can't remember when we had a full day of constant water supply. Well, there might have been some (for national holidays probably), yet the neighborhood in which I live in has been marked with water supply shortages since ...forever? Most probably yes. From 10am to 4pm, forget to clean that dirty dish, since there's no water. This is an everyday event.
``
So, this neighbor of ours simply just cut the water supply without even notifying the residents. At first, we quickly adapted for the situation and braced for the worst (we are used to this), but we did not like it at all. Second, we asked around and found were the problem was. There was some illegal construction building going on on the other side of the building, and most probably the workers broke a water pipe. It is so stupid to go ahead and work on a building without even having the slightest idea about the water pipe structure / blueprint. Then always, ALWAYS, stuff like this happens. "Oops, we accidentally did this", "Oops, we did not know that you had water pipes in your bathroom".

What gives? Of course there are! ``

There are tons of other cases when road-works leave a whole neighborhood without electricity because they accidentally cut the wrong wire, or when the ground for an un-planned (refraining to use the word "illegal") building is prepared the bulldozer bursts open a water-pipe, leaving much of the area short of water for days (and without even apologizing or feeling the urgent need to fix the leak). Most of the people do not give a damn if others suffer from their stupid actions that should have been stopped in the first place.

Now I'll just go and use a bottle of water to wash my teeth.
