Mexicans Work the Longest Hours
By CATHERINE RAMPELL

According to a new report from the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, people in Mexico spend more hours of their day working than the people of any other country.

The average Mexican devotes 10 hours a day to paid and unpaid work, like cleaning, child care and cooking at home. Belgians, on the other hand, spend the least time each day working, about seven hours, among the 29 countries covered.

Well cooking and cleaning their own home is a way of life. We all have to do that. What about just being a mom; that's a full-time a job in itself and does any woman get paid for that. NOPE!!! 10 hrs a day is nothing. What about working doubles everyday? Especially, if you're the only on duty manager at a clothing store. That's a killer. It doesn't matter what race you are, what country you live in, you still have to work your butt off unless you want to be out in the street. To make it fair for everyone. I'll put it in caps. WE ALL HAVE TO WORK HARD FOR OUR SURVIVAL. No I'm not yelling. Just making that clear.

I've observe that Mexican workers put a lot of pride and effort into their work.
