Greek delusions

Interesting research from Pew. It shows how deluded the Greeks are. They think they are the most hardworking country in Europe when people in most other countries think they are the laziest.

A first hand experience of Greece comes from Rachael, a Kiwi who travelled there:

I first encounter this laziness when I visit the Archeology Museum primarily to see the Greek vase collection which takes up the entire first floor.

I’m ridiculously excited (nerdy I know) but ever since I studied them at high school I’ve been a little obsessed.

But when I get there I discover the collection is closed.

When I ask I’m told – “just because.”

So I ask someone else and they helpfully inform me that they didn’t feel like putting on enough staff to cover it today, even though it’s the weekend. …

Back to Greeks being lazy… they have a equal CBF attitude when it comes to showcasing their most prized possession – the Acropolis. 

Most days it closes at 3pm but somedays earlier – it just depends on how they feel. …

It’s one thing to be lazy. But to be lazy and deluded is dangerous. Which is why they’ve just voted a Government in that thinks the rest of the world has a duty to pay their bills without conditions.
