France – The Country of Strikes?

I was rather amused when I read an article on the subject of labour strikes in France, which can be found here: http://www.acrimed.org/article2415.html. Amused because it is still true that Frenchmen are very temperamental when it comes to things they CANNOT and WILL NOT accept. It is rather charming from a Danish perspective because in our country a revolution is only possible when you have TOTAL agreement between all parties.

So, although only a temporary nuisance, it is still true that the French take action and want solutions rather than cheap talk. But no worries. I’m confident you can plan your summer vacations without worrying about strikes in March. They will be over before summer. The French people know how important tourism is, and even in airports the french have top notch service and over-all performance nearing full throttle compared with other countries.

Have a nice weekend. 🙂
