Working hours doesn't prove anything.. It only prove that French are luckily bastard that really know how to enjoy life.. Muahahaha
No la.. It is because their worker union is too strong till the Gov got to bow upon to them.
One of the French yearly schedule = protesting.. Every now and then you will see them protest on working hours, cut working hours, asking for raise.. many many thing one la.. and it is LEGAL. They need to inform the Gov how many will be there. Where it is be held 1 months or 1 weeks advance for the protesting.. Hahaha
Most happening senario i saw is the fireman protesting in fron of Opera House in Paris.. Almost who paris city JAMMED like mad.. Fireman from all over the country come to take place.. they light flare, doing many many stun.. Like home made kind of boom (not dangerous one la just for the sound) and light up fire here and there (inside tong minyak la).. happening..
And guess what.. got hot dog seller and drink seller during the protesting.. hahaha then police force all gear up getting ready just incase the crowd lost control.. Then some fireman sleep on the road to block the traffic.. Funny la..
