you must not know any in real life. Greeks are dirty, lazy, irritable, and uneducated and their country reflects that.
Actually I wouldn't say that. Not particularly interested in jumping on a racist bandwagon sorry.
But to provide context for my question.
I grew up in a Greek community in Oz and the Greeks I lived amongst and went to school with were some of the hardest working and supportive people I met. Sure they weren't Rhode scholars, but they welcomed me into their community, gave me an after school job and accepted me as one of the family.
Now this doesn't necessarily equate to the modern Greek citizen living in Greece.
I had heard from a Project manager who worked on the Olympics construction a completely different story about their work ethic (and working long hours doesn't equate to productivity either).
Hence why I asked Bacardi for some more info because what he was saying was inconsistent with what I had been told. Have never worked in Greece so I can't form a personal opinion.
Hope that clarifies.
