Anyone for work in Amsterdam?

I think it'd be wwaaaayyy too easy to go off the rails with all the "attractions" over there!:yikes:
 
The grass isn't always greener, the reason they work so few hours is that if they work more than that they go into super tax mode, at least that was what the sparkies were telling us when we worked in Antwerp, possibly the same ?
 
I have worked in Holland/ Germany/ and the US, as well as all over the UK, The only thing I can add .to this thread, is that twelve hours hard graft, is twelve hours hard graft. It does not matter where in the world you are.:thumbsup:

True, but location weather and rates can make it more, or less bearable 😉
 
But what they didn't mention was they get 8 euros for tiling / metre and 32 euros per hour for sitting in a window with a coloured light on to hide the 6 oclock shadow!
