Yep. That is why Nordic countries and Germans are so fucked with their huge unemployement figures and rising bond yields. Oh wait...



I can assure you, the economy here is similar to a post war economy, the last government was the worst of the plagues, and the new one seems to be lost with the huge black hole they have found. We need a complete change in the system to a freer one. Spain is the country in the western world where you need more time and bureaucracy papers to create a company, most people here only want to be government employees, and the entrepreneurs are despised.

It's a very sad state of affairs we have here, probably I'll have to fire two of the five workers on my company because of the losses due to payments not done by the different governments. They hire your company in public offerings, but then they don't pay you in the accorded date, sometimes they pay you two years after the due date or even later.



Live in Portugal and didnt know it was that bad in Spain... Wow...

i guess i need to go to USA if i want to have a good living, first i need a serious girlfriend to go with me.

The 09:00 to 14:00 and 17:00 to 20:00 working hours is less common than some years ago. Some companies are adopting the "european" working hours, with only one hour lunch time, and going to work at 08:30 or 08:00.



You can see how bad it is in Spain when you compare the unemployment figures to those in the UK. The UK has a population of 62 million, whereas Spain's is 46 million and Spain's unemployment figure is around twice the size of the UK's.

And the UK is only just struggling along as it is.
