[QUOTE="SuZir, post: 548203, member: 14557"] You are right :winking: he is curious kid like that. Either he doesn't pay attention at all and notices nothing, or he notices everything. That is one thing I have enjoyed always with him. He does often have his own, unique perspective and observations. Sometimes they are great fun :bigsmile: In fact we, officially, don't have any set minimum wage. But if it gets under 6 euro, there is a good chance that government agency that oversees worker safety issues gets interested and police will be looking if there is any extortion etc. going on. Lowest real salaries tend to be up from 7 euro. We do have very strong workers' unions that are the ones negotiating minimum wages and other benefits for their business with employers' unions. Law just states some ground rules about vacation length, double salaries on Sundays, maximum overtime work etc. to protect the weakest. That is dead on. And reason we prefer manuals. Even with bigger cars it is very difficult to drive in deeper snow (or get yourself out of snow mound) with automatics. Manual gives you more control. [/QUOTE]
