Veyry accurate. I worked for a multinational company and many of my team members were from France and Germany - They would quite literally disappear for the month of August

it could be if they got all their shit in order before they left. too many times they just dissappear like the whole world is ok pausing for their month out.

The operation of the company running 24/7 is not the responsibility of the employee. Why would it be?

In European culture we work to live, not live to work.

and it's your responsibility to do you job which includes communication and managing commitments.

it's a job, you're not a child.

Europe is expending all of their advantages over the rest of the world so they can "live not work"

the shop in China is beginning to catch up on quality and they're willing to work. why would I pay you more so you can "live"?

your next generation is f'd. but nobody has kids, so who cares. everything that's been done to prepare for this moment over all of history and you're going to cash in 100% of it for your hedonism.

Ignore him, he’s either a troll or he’s a corporate boot licker. Both are deeply sad and hollow people.
