I always found it strange that quite a few of my chinese colleagues would come in to the office to eat breakfast. - not snack - but the real thing?
this to maximise the hours?
for sure here the norm is long working hours - some might say it could explain a few things regarding the economy here?
if the day is longer more potential even if its inefficient? open up time zones accessibility - and you forget to factor in the valuation co-efficient of the guys with the cheque books..
the ones who benefit from these long hours.
the boss - and he doesnt care how inefficient you maggots think it is
and you better be ready to be at their beck and call - with frantic chicken pecking decision making maneuvers with all major options and information left until beyond the last possible moment...
