    How Much I Love to Work
    Bee22 Pianezza
    Here it is 9 pm and I'm still online working. Has this become the norm in today's society? There is no such thing as a 9-5 job anymore. If you don't put in 7 days a week, you're considered lazy...at least that's the case in North America. I recently visited Europe and was looking forward to a bit of shopping so I headed to the local markets on a Sunday. Well, everything was closed! Imagine that? I then postponed my shopping until the next day. Notices on the store windows indicated the shops would open at 9:30 am. I thought, how lovely for the staff to be able to not only have Sunday off but sleep in a bit. With coffee in hand, I headed towards the marketplace shortly before 9:30 am. I didn't see very many people opening up their shops. In fact, the staff drifted in around 9:45 and some at 10 am! They certainly were in no hurry. I think I'm going to move to Europe!
