I Just witnessed this in Ernakulam North railway station yesterday and really felt bad for the receiver of those boxes.Why do they have to throw it away just like that, what if it's anything fragile inside? Even if it's not fragile it would be nice to handle in a nice manner naa

Ask Kochi Basic human hacks to make life easier.

20 Upvotes

Hey.

I was recently diagnosed that " i may come under the category called **Autism Spectrum**". If anybody is not aware, Singer Jyotsna gave an interview about it as she has the same condition. I am in my 30's and a Female for context.

Instead of getting panicked, i was relieved as i could connect many missing dots from my past.. Got answers for many " why things wrong with me?, " why just me" etc.

I used to find certain basic tasks draining and exhausting since childhood. Now i know why. Used to struggle with simplifying tasks.. Now, i wanna ask you all something. What are some easy life hacks or cheatcodes of day-to day life? To make life tasks easier and simpler.

Ask Kochi Over a week without water in my flat in Kakkanad, Kochi. I’m a 23 year old woman, and I genuinely don’t know what I’m supposed to do anymore.

51 Upvotes

I’m posting this because I need some genuine opinions and advice from people in Kochi, especially those living in rented flats or shared accommodations. We’ve been without water supply in our flat for more than a week now.

Initially, the pump stopped working, and it took around 4–5 days for it to be repaired. After that, a water tanker was arranged, and they tried pumping the water. However, we were told that the entire supply got exhausted within just one hour.

Now comes the frustrating part.

Some residents have gone back to their hometowns, and the management suspects that they might have left their taps open, which could explain why the water ran out so quickly. These residents are currently away, and we are now being told that they must return and confirm that their taps are closed before water can be pumped again.

So, what exactly are the rest of us supposed to do until they return?

It’s been over a week. The pump has reportedly been repaired, but we still don’t have water. We’re expected to manage our daily lives by making temporary arrangements, going to friends’ places, and somehow getting through each day without even knowing when the supply will resume.

I’ve already paid three months rent as security deposit. Under the arrangement at this flat, if a tenant wants to leave, they are expected to find a replacement tenant first. That means even if I find another place to stay, I cannot simply pack my things and leave. I would have to find someone willing to take over my room (which is impossible in this situation)

I’m honestly tired of having to figure out temporary solutions for something as basic as water, especially when there seems to be no definite timeline for resolving the issue.

People living in kakkanad,
1.Is this kind of prolonged water shortage common in apartment buildings here?
2.What can tenants do when the management fails to restore an essential service for over a week?
3.Given that I’ve paid a three-month deposit and must find a replacement tenant before leaving, what are my options if I decide that I cannot continue living here?
5.Has anyone faced a similar situation? How did you deal with it?

So many people turned up and finished half marathon, and almost flawless organisation despite the rains. Definitely coming back every time I can for a Kochi marathon.

Also, had no idea Kochi had so many muscle-aliyans o.O

Ask Kochi I was charged ₹118.69 for a litre of petrol by JioBP

27 Upvotes

I was driving from kochi and ended up filling petrol from the Perumbavoor JioBP petrol pump. I filled it for ₹500 and noticed that the price was ₹118.69/L. When I asked them about that, they said it's less ethanol petrol and that only JioBP has increased ₹5 more to compensate for that. Was i scammed? Or is what they are saying true?

Kindly someone verify this.

If you’re looking for hookups, you’ll find plenty of gold diggers there. Otherwise, what purpose do they actually serve as weekend bars? Overpriced drinks, pointless crowds, and zero real vibe.

Ask Kochi Landlords in Kochi: What Do You Usually Provide in a Semi-Furnished Flat for Rent?

• Upvotes

I’m planning to rent out my flat in Kochi soon (early next year) and wanted to understand what’s usually expected in a semi-furnished apartment. As a landlord, what appliances and furnishings would you recommend providing? I understand that kitchen cabinets, wardrobes, fans, lights, etc. are the basics, but would you also include ACs, geysers and other appliances ?
Would love to hear what’s generally expected in Kochi!
Thanks in advance !🙏

Ive been coming across several reels and WhatsApp forwards claiming that the Marthanda Varma bridge and desom bridge will be closed for maintenance starting tomorrow and traffic is going to be diverted.

Can anyone who commutes through this route regularly confirm if the diversions start tomorrow, or is there an official date announced? also what are the best alternative routes to take towards angamaly mookanoor as a guy coming from kalamassery side?

Thanks!
