Work Better

If I were German, Dutch and Finnish cabrearía I also have to help the countries of southern Europe, which have happily spent money that did not, while in contrast, they worked hard to achieve.

The leader of the emerging right-wing Finnish Timo Soini, said in a recent interview: "We are a serious people who religiously pay their taxes. Why do we have to get the dirty work for some guys who are dedicated to avoid money Treasury? "

The phrase, of course, is a simplification own extremists. But then it was known that only one out of four Greeks Treasury to meet its obligations and thus no way to contradict anyone, this is very xenophobic.

What bothers most people is that cold north, she said, in Mediterranean countries, we spent the day and especially night-clubbing. And why not see what is happening at four in the morning on Saturday in some streets of any Spanish city. In many of them there is more traffic at peak hours of a workday, albeit with more of alcohol in his veins.

Another scenario would be the scandal of its golf courses, full of gold early retirement at the expense of Social Security, with time and money to spare for some handicaps that neither Sergio Garcia. Specifically, I have a fellow student who takes the last thirteen years traveling all the green of Spain, a good writer's phrase "golf courses in this country's economic accumulates untapped talent in many companies."

He argued, against me, that according to statistics the Spanish work more hours than Germans, for example. Of course it was. But we do it better?

Cursed because of our schedules, we had dinner when I should be sleeping, the best TV shows end at midnight and the bars stay open until dawn. So, of course, we asleep at work, our productivity is low, accidents were frequent, absenteeism is higher than other countries ... and, of course, not take away our mid-morning sandwich.

It is not, therefore, be more hours at work, but to do better, be more effective, be more rested for life, to spend more time with family and, incidentally, remove ammunition for those who, rightly, pissed them help Europe's southern and then see how they rub their noses against the effort.
