We like to whine about small wages, unemployment, etc etc, while trying to avoid working as much as we can. Makes sense right?

Why not? Who said man was made to work all day every day, and for what. If we were to work only for our sustenance, and not to make that 1% earning the 99% that it is to be earned, too rich, we would live happily no matter where on earth. We were not born to work, neither to barbecue every day :))
Do you have any vegetarian in Greece?
