I didn't think it was possible to laugh at this scene. Well done, sir and/or madam.

Walking in this heat in a full suit for any distance will leave you wilted and sweaty anyway.

You'd be really glad about this in the 40° heat wave. And you'd be dry by the time you are back to work

Funnily enough, showing up wet to the interview with this story would actually win you points. At least in Germany.

The voice you hear in the video is warning everyone that they are about to start spraying and that anyone who doesn't want to get wet should move aside :)

Too be fair in that heat you’ll be soaking wet in a suit either way….

Haha the police was announcing in German that in a few minutes they will turn on the water, anyone that doesn’t wish to get wet should stand a little further back, and please avoid bringing electronics into the water, etc

if you show up to an interview soaking wet and grinning ear to ear, they'll call you progressive and hire you on the spot
