What? Actual work? No siesta?!! Are they loco com gusto? <Brazilian executives working for Chinese firms are also complaining about “long work days, frequent overtime, teleconferences in the wee hours, and production goals that are unrealistic and non-negotiable.” > Over already? Good grief, that was quick. There are one night stands that last longer than that: <Latin America’s blind love with China may be over > That's not a marriage. It's not even a love affair. Barely a dirty weekend, for hire. "Yankee go home!" for Americans. What do they say for Chinese? To Anglophobia, they'll have to add Sinophobia. Mqurice

Brazilian executives working for Chinese firms are also complaining about “long work days, frequent overtime, teleconferences in the wee hours, and production goals that are unrealistic and non-negotiable.” That's funny. In Fairfax County, Asian population outnumbers Hispanic or black. I see Asian business owners hiring Hispanic work force, not the other way around. I think you may have put your finger on the reason. Not that I see Asian business owners hiring whites or blacks.
