My wife told me I'll be working until they throw me in the box. So I find plenty of time to play too![8D]


Our wives must know each other. And my mother. My dad worked full time until he was 75 ( he is now 80 ). And, with my mother's prompting , part of his retire package contains a clause that he keeps an office with them as long as he wants. So he still goes into to the office most days from around 8:30 untill noon or so. Talks to a few of his old customers, talks to a few of the senior execs, and reads the Wall Street Journal. My mom says that if he wasn't out of the house for 4 hours a day she might kill him. As they have been married for 55 years I THINK she is joking.

My dad worked till the day he died, literally. I'm really hoping to not do the same.

I got off work today at about half past noon, and then I ran over quite a bit. So, I don't work the rest of today, unless I get a bad telephone call. But, I begin again tomorrow to get ready for the next work day, which just about takes all week.

Do you realise how STUPID we are in North America???

For all the negativity that the American press et al pour onto Europe they have a STANDARD SIX WEEK vacation package as a yearly right for their workers!

Boy have we been hosed in North America!

What are you talking about? I had only something like 20-25 days per year off work (it goes a little upwards with age to some 25 days + what employer grants you a bonus). Where can I ask for my additional two weeks? [:D]

Comes from people in North America ignorantly persisting in thinking of all Europeans as somehow being members of one giant nation.

For the 7,943rd time, the EU does not decide everything!

...so nearly 30 percent of your posts have to do with what the EU controls? No wonder they are so terse...

No , we don't think of the EU as a nation. People tell their country where to go every day. We think of it as an international labor union. And everybody is TERRIFIED of labor unions. Any debate can immediately and totally be shut down by saying the simple but terrifying words , "can't do that , unions rules forbid it". More dangerous and frightening than a governement, organization or even a wife having "her time of the month"! [:D]

It's also not that. The EU is a squabbling debate society, which Germany and France each wish they could dominate.
