The state system in Spain, an hilarious insight!

There is a great post on Nick Snelling's Culture Spain blog where he reflects on the system of how civil cervants are employed in Spain. and the very true-to-life and popular video which the Spaniards themselves say is spot on.

I've said plenty of stuff on this subject in the past but I recommend you take a read of Nick's post and watch the video:

The video clip is brilliant and it should be on national Spanish tv. It's so funny but sad that it's so true.

Wake up Spain!!!!!!!! They really can't see further than the tips of their noses (and I know, i'm married to one!).

They have a lovely country, wonderful weather and have gone full out to destroy it all due to insecurity and greed. Sad.

Get those public sector workers who are going to jokingly take now a 'puente' of monday and Tuesday off work to share their jobs with those who are unemployed and who I would guarantee could do those jobs far better than those sat in their ivory tower protected jobs. It's so unfair.

The video needs to be sent to all Gov departments I would do myself if I new how including Trafico, two days ago I was there to sort out a problem with my UK licence the man on the desk said it would be easyer and quicker to change it to a Spanish one, 3 hours 6 trips for potocopys 1 trip for a medical later I came out total cost 98 euros and I have to go back in 2 weeks, my Spanish friend that came with me could not belive it
