Socialist productivity at its finest.
I swear to God that every story about Venezuela seems like it should be coming from The Onion. Socialism is such an evil joke on people.
Bernie Sanders supports will love this. Pay whether you work or not. What a deal!
Based on my own experience working for the US gov’t, that would represent an increase of 100% (or more) for most employees.
Venezuela is the poster child for what either a Sanders or a Clinton Admin. would bring to this country. Go Trump!
We would be better off without government employees
“Venezuela’s socialist government ordered public workers on Tuesday to work a two-day week as an energy-saving measure in the crisis-hit South American OPEC country. “
Oh for pete’s sake don’t publish this...next thing the hacks here in MA will be demanding 2-day work weeks.
Meanwhile, unions representing Venezuela’s government employees protested the requirement that their members work two days a week for the same salary as before, claiming working two full days a week more than doubled the amount of work they previously had to perform to earn that salary.
As long as I get paid my full salary for working only 2 days, no problem!/s
