Poem

His soul
a dark black dungeon
no one wants to live in
not even he.

Better beware!

Hey, let's strike again. Why not! Now that we've got a bit of tourism coming in let's make a mess of it all again and leave them waiting at their hometown airports. Let's show everyone how angry we are while depriving ourselves of the one thing we thought we could count on. Tourism.
Let's cut some electricity or water, yeahaw, that 'll teach 'm.

Great opportunity to show the world we don't want to work more then 30 years. Fantastic way to let everyone know we deserve 14 months pay a year. I mean we are talking about 30% of the greek population. 1 in 3 greeks is in government services, so hell yeah we are talking about a majority of Greece's inhabitants, not a minority stinking up the place.

With the world press looking over our shoulders, strikes will show the EU where their money is going. The Germans, the Dutch, the French, all of our european friends will definitely understand that the greek blue collars have such a tiring life they should be allowed to stop working at 53 where the rest of Europe keeps going for another 12 years. Of course they are happy to pay for that. Now would this same problem occur in p.e. The Netherlands we would be talking about a mere 10% of the population since only 1 in 10 is government employed. I.e. A minority. They wouldn't be able to lame a whole country. They wouldn't be able to let hardworking people in tourism suffer every day by taking their bread straight from the mouth. What unlucky people they are. How sad, these dutch, they can't get anything done. How about those poor Germans that voluntarily took pay-cuts to save a fellow worker, or was it the French....... anyway, guess they couldn't paralize their country either.... pathetic. Better here, better strike. But......

One day our fellow greeks, who work extremely hard in farming or retail or tourism, who put in a sad 10 to 12 hours a day 7 days a week for 2/3ds of the money, who have to beg for their Christmas bonus, who are the real majority, one day they shall rise too. One day they will say: enough of this. And on this day you better be out of their way, 'cause their wrath will be humongous and their revenge will be bittersweet.
You better beware!
