    Hard Work

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-18144320

    Do you work a lot or a little? Type in your hours, and we'll tell you how you compare with the average employee in your own country, and the average across 34 developed nations.

    The figures come from the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), sometimes referred to as the rich countries' club, which gathers them from its 34 members.
    Started looking at this. Then I noted that the graph shows that the French work more than the Germans. Then I knew it was all bullshit.

    Surprised Spain are above us. I thought I'd read they worked the fewest hours.

    Formed by two mighty tribes, the bores and the bored.
