The Cydonian's Journal: Work and Party.

The Time magazine is running an article on how Europeans party more than the Americans.

While I can of course easily attest to the fact that (mainland?) Europeans party, and party hard, it's interesting to note that it "in France, it is illegal to work more than 35 hours a week".

Sheesh, I easily did twice that amount in the last one week alone.

Illegal to work more than 35 hours in a week?

If I lived in France, I'd've been thrown in the slammer several times over, I guess. :)
