As a Dane, I have always been fucking shocked at the slave-like working conditions Americans work under. They barely get any time off as it is. What do you mean too many holidays?

The worst part is... If you've ever had the pleasure of working with an American company you'll notice just how unproductive they are.

Obviously the two are closely connected, but it's always fascinating to me

So true. True efficiency can only be achieved when human labour is finite. Look at the small countries of norther europe. /my first comment on lemmee :D
