Now whether that is because they are a risk averse culture or just pure bulltulipters I don't know."I hope Celtic realise that, if their team is good enough, they will win. If they're not good enough, they'll not win - and they can't look at anybody else, whether it is referees or any other influence." - Walter Smith

I think there may be a grain of truth in this.
I have heard of one immigrant innovating industrialist who puts in so many hours at work, he doesn't even have a chair at home to sit on.
Nor a settee.

Do the needful please, plenty cheapness and much quickness if you don't mind.The Times claims that Mr Tata said British managers were “lazy”. At no stage in the interview did Mr Tata make this comment. This entire interview was recorded and the transcript will confirm the misinformation created by this alleged quote.
Tata therefore wishes to make clear that The Times article fundamentally misrepresents the interview.Behold the warranty -- the bold print giveth and the fine print taketh away.Comment

Originally posted by Mich the Tester View PostMr Tata, you may have noticed that most people in Britain live in clean, well maintained houses in neighbourhoods with proper roads, sewage systems and even some nice trees to freshen the air. They quite like being at home because in most cases, it's quite a nice place with a nice roast chicken in the oven. Maybe people in India stay at work longer because for many of them, going home involves leaving a comfortable, clean, air conditioned office to traipse through open sewers and piles of garbage and dying lepers on the way to a cramped and dirty little shack in the hope that their wife's scraped together enough rice for them to have a meal before grabbing a few hours kip in one room with the rest of their extended family.
But of course, Mr Tata, I expect you've forgotten how most people in India live.
Given that the last gentleman from Mumbai claimed he was here to steal my job, and then proceeded to turn up late for work and knock off early every day, I ain't going to contribute a single rupee.Behold the warranty -- the bold print giveth and the fine print taketh away.Comment
