Maybe a leaf should be taken out of Rio's book?Unemployment here has fallen this year but I have a feeling it's because businesses employ about 10 people to do a job one person could manage to do!

I've seen plenty of ridiculous examples in shops over here, of crowds of staff standing around doing absolutely nothing. In tiny tiny shops too. And the amount of people employed to make sure that you don't have to lift a finger to do anything yourself is crazy. Someone to pack your shopping bags, another to carry the shopping to the taxi. The doorman to help with the shopping from the taxi. Then the maid to use the shopping to cook dinner and clean the place afterwards. And everything can be delivered to your door by men on scooters. EVERYTHING. Need some ice? Soup? Dinosaur fossils? Give it 30 minutes and someone will bring it to you.
Don't get me wrong, I am a lazy, lazy man, but this all seems to be a bit over the top.
Now, someone fetch me another mimosa. I will pay you for it.
