I know everything he said is meant as a joke, but I've been living outside of Greece for nearly a decade now and I've always had a chip on my shoulder due to this harmful stereotype that Greeks are lazy. We're the Mexicans of Europe. It cuts deep and I can't easily laugh about it. It especially angers me because most of the time it comes from snobby north Europeans with the cushiest jobs and lives. Yeah, go work in Greece for ten hours a day to get 650 euros with a 300 Euro rent and see if you like it, princess.
I'm a north European, I live in Greece and I KNOW FOR A FACT Greeks are NOT lazy. They are just like people in other countries, some work harder some not so much, we are all people.
where u get that ,never heard that,they are owners of restaurants,hard working.
bebetigre12, prejustice and stereotypes don't seem to care for facts 😕
What is true so is that greeks (in Greece) are not so efficient. They are not able to, because they have to work 10 times harder to achieve the same thing, and that's because of the bad infrastructure and inefficient state offices in the country.😒
Everywhere else in the world greeks are successful...
@@zahnpastacremetube you speak the truth.
Filippos, don't worry. Problems we are are aware of can be solved, only the ones we don't see or don't want to see are dangerous.
I already feel progress, a lot of things changed and still change in Greece. Modern technology, new companies, new ideas...
There is NOTHING MORE BEAUTIFUL then being half Greek/half Italian.❤️❤️
I am Italian and I love Greece. You don't have to tease your roots, they are the best things you have.
Greece and Italy have built almost all of our Western world. The Anglo-Saxons only wrapped it in plastic.
It has never happened to me to find restaurants with fake menus and lazy waiters in Greece. They simply let you enjoy dinner without bothering you every moment.
In the same way, in Milan there is no one who sits like that to drink a coffee. In Milan, everyone is always in a rush and produces more money in that city than in all of Bavaria. But not even in the most remote villages of southern Italy, not even on a Sunday afternoon in the middle of August, have I ever seen someone sitting like that drinking coffee.
It's okay to use stereotypes, but at least make sure you use the right ones !!
bro you just went to the greek restaurants 😂😂😂 im a greek living my whole life in greece and i can confirm that everything he said is literally 100% right
Μια Βουλγαρικη παροιμία λέει: δουλεύω τόσο όσο με πληρώνουν για να μην πεθάνω ".
Σπούδασα εθνική εργασιολογια στην Γερμανία. Το πρώτο μάθημα, στο οποίο τονίζω ότι κάναμε ανάλυση για τουλάχιστον 3 βδομάδες, ήταν: Καλός εργάτης /υπάλληλος είναι μόνο εκείνος που πληρώνεται καλά!
Το αντίθετο, η εκμετάλλευση, η κάθετη εργασία, οι προβολές ή οι βρισιές (σε πρώτο ή και δεύτερο πρόσωπο), κατά οποιοδήποτε ατόμου σε εργασιακή σχέση, είναι προς μη όφελος του παροχου εργασίας!!!!
Τόνια τι ωραία που το έθεσες!!!!
Με τη διαφορά ότι οι Γερμανοί το εφαρμόζουν μόνο στην Χώρα τους αυτό (και αν). Στις άλλες χώρες όπου έχουν εργοστάσια, απομυζούν τον πληθυσμό με μισθούς τρόμου για να βγει η παραγωγή. Οπότε καλή η θεωρία αλλά στην πράξη άλλα γίνονται.
Tania Antw
Ακόμα δεν έχω βρει εργασία που να μη με έχουν βρίσει.
¿Que dices amigo?
Και στην Ελλάδα το πρώτο μάθημα που μαθαίνουν οι προϊστάμενοι/αφεντικά "οι εργαζόμενοι είναι σαν τα πορτοκάλια, τα στιβεις, τα στιβεις και όταν δεν βγάζουν άλλο χυμό, τα πετάς και παίρνεις αλλά"
In Sicily we do the same gesture to say "no" ahahaha
interesting, do you say chu too or just the gesture?
@@kosmara1901 Both gesture and the sound
@@pumpkin91ful I wonder if it goes back to ancient times or is a more recent thing.
@@kosmara1901 Old time, ancient greeks colonized Sicily,Calabria and Apulia than during the middle age , byzantines immigrants that escaped from the Ottoman empire settled in southern Italy , until today we still make Easter Koulouri bread; (have a look at Griko and Grecanico dialects).
@@pumpkin91ful I know about the old Greek communities over there, that's why I wondered. Was it from ancient times or from renaissance diaspora.
It all comes down to preference. What I actually love and value about Greece and Italy is how real it is. Would rather not have the “service”, but create a friendship for life and build a relationship with the “waiter” and the people who are supposed to “serve”.
As a Greek Australian living in Greece and the United States for a decade, I must say I haven’t missed Australia at all. Australia is no doubt a great economic country and I’m proud to have been born there. For those who enjoy systems and structures australia is golden ! I prefer to be young and free though 😉
In the States, customer service in restaurants is based on tips, which obviously means that the waiters are paid based on their service to the customers. However, that also means that in most places, the goal is to get the people in and out of the place as quickly as possible in order to serve as many potential customers as possible. So, while you do get the waiter asking you a million times do you need anything, etc..the ultimate goal is to get a big tip and then get you out. In Italy, the waiters are paid a salary and do not depend on tips, thus they allow customers to sit back and enjoy their meals without running over to the table asking you if you need this or that and then attempt to get you out. I guess Locascio doesn't realize this and just likes to be waited on.
i am greek
but not offended
Shit happens to EVERY country and YES we have these kind of people but definately we are not like this
But THIS is comedy and i enjoyed it really !
good one
Exactly the same for me and the Italian stereotype. There definitely are people like that in our country and it's pretty accurate I must say :D great comedy short right here!

Constantinos Mettis He’s Greek too fuckwad. And as the op said, It’s comedy. It’s not meant to be taken serious because he’s (try to wrap your 2 brain cells around this) JOKING.
Capri Ama Yes he is. He’s half Greek and Half Italian like he’s said multiple time. Why do you think those are the two cultures that he’s choosing to talk about. He even talked about this exact video in another stand up act later on.
@@constantinosmettis6080 you must be blind. if you call a tall man a midget, does he care? you only care because you know it's true
I’m Italian and French Canadian. I have seen stereotypes from both nationalities. I relate to them fully and I’m not offended with it. We’re Human. We’re much more alike than different.
I am Greek and outside the lazy remark, everything else was pretty much spot on. I can't speak about the Italian stuff as unfortunately I have met very few Italians (TWO) in my life, never been to Italy etc. I will tell you one thing though, though we didn't always have the best of relations with them, I like them. One of a handful of languages I wish I could speak. Good comedy.
Geez, the other commenters can't take a joke. I've been all around Italy and he's spot on. The service sucks everywhere, many stink, and seems like everyone smokes. Rome Airport is like walking through a gigantic bar from the 70's.

Το τελευταίο το λέει σε άλλο βίντεο 😂😂😂😂
I don't know why but the people who went in Australia for a better life almost hate their origins .I think that they wanted to fill better for themselves! Especially in Australia there are so many Greeks but if you ask them they say that Greeks who live in Greece are lazy! Why is that? And also if someone wants to be a comedian should have something new to say ,not something that it's been said so many times! It's a pity!
They don't hate their origins but when you move to another country, you get use to the culture in that country. In Australia, customer service is very efficient and yes, it does make many other cultures look lazy in comparison but then we envy their work-life balance, family values and carefree approach. Pros and cons. I was born in europe, live in Australia and travelled through most of the world, I understand exactly what he's talking about.
I understand that many things he says are for the purpose of the stand up comedy performance and in some extend they are funny indeed. HOWEVER. You can be funny without perpetuating stereotypes and generalisations of an entire population. According to the World Economic Forum with data from Eurostat 02/2018, Greeks have the longest working weeks with 42.3 hrs/week. And not only that, if you haven't realised the situation from your trips in Greece, they are seriously underpaid. The middle class that you so easily make fun of and describe as the laziest has been practically destroyed from the constant reduction of salaries and the unbearable taxes. And I can personally testify for that since I belong to one of the few middle class families still standing. And I get it, of course there is a huge, continuous problem with a big percentage of the public sector of the country but that doesnt mean that everyone's lazy. And it's SO FRUSTRATING when they keep telling you you're lazy or a thief just because SOME OTHER PEOPLE ARE.
Ωραίο αυτό που λες στην πρώτη πρόταση αλλά δεν φαίνεται να το πιστεύεις....όσο για τις ώρες που δουλεύει ο μέσος Έλληνας, αυτό μπορεί να σημαίνει κακή απόδοση χρόνου/δουλειάς.
Ξέρεις τι, ειλικρινά καταλαβαίνω ότι ως ένα βαθμό όσα λέει είναι για πλάκα κ στην αρχή κ εγώ γέλασα. Όπως μπορεί να γελάσω με ανέκδοτα που μπορεί να θεωρούνται ρατσιστικά, όχι επειδή είμαι εγώ ρατσίστρια προφανώς, αλλά γιατί δε χρειάζεται να είμαστε πάντα και παντού (ειδικά στο χιούμορ) politically correct και σοβαροφανείς. Η αντιδραστικότητα μου βγήκε πιθανώς (1) λόγω του ότι σε αυτήν την περίπτωση τα στερεότυπα αφορούν εμένα κ όχι κάποιον άλλο (υποκριτικό I know) κ (2) γιατί κατά κάποιον τρόπο «πληγώνει» όταν κάποιος που έχει μεγαλώσει στην «ίδια» χ ψ κουλτούρα την καταδικάζει αντί να την υπερασπίζεται κ ενισχύει λανθασμένες αντιλήψεις ως προς αυτήν. Όσον αφορά στις ώρες εργασίας, απλά ήθελα να εκφράσω την αντίθεσή μου ως προς την ταμπέλα του τεμπέλη, σίγουρα το να δουλεύεις μεγαλύτερο ωράριο δε σημαίνει ότι είσαι αποδοτικός πάντα. Από την άλλη, σίγουρα είναι ειρωνικό να σε λένε οκνηρό.

im Greek and i lived and worked in Sydney for a year and a half , during the crisis in 2012-2013...i worked in a fine dine restaurant for that time with another 15 waiters/waitresses. from this staff we were 3 greeks working there. one day my manager was telling me that Greece and Cyprus were in all this economic problems because Greeks are lazy and all that shit that ignorant people were saying at the time...my response was...name me your 3 best waiters from all your staff....his face was priceless!!! YOU should be ashamed for calling "your" people lazy and building in that reputation of us being lazy...thats just not funny...u could make jokes about greeks in so many other ways and it would be fine...NOT THIS!!!
Hi Constantinos, thank you for taking the time to comment on my video from 2017. Please be advised that I no longer make jokes about how lazy Greeks are. I now make jokes about sensitive little people who take time out of their obviously very busy lives to write comments on my videos. I find it’s a far more accurate stereotype. But thank you for the feedback :)
@@AnthonyLocascioComedian i know you are "trying" to be smart..stop trying..you are wasting your time.. i know you probably have "little people" giving u shit about your jokes but i actually liked other videos you have like the one with your Italian and greek grandfathers..that was good..THIS subject is a very sensitive matter where many many greeks have been economically destroyed and lost everything and then if that wasnt enough , they were called lazy on top of that!! if you lived in Greece then or even now and went through all that shit , believe me , you would never make a joke like that.. we greeks are proud people man. respect that! you could make a million other jokes about greeks and nobody would give a fuck..this is fucking with our pride..thats why you have so many negative comments
Constantinos Mettis generally my policy is to not respond to any of the ridiculous people who leave comments on my videos, but for some reason, I like you. You’re a passionate sensitive man, I respect that. Thanks for the tips, I’ll never forget them. ua-cam.com/video/zdT8e6cqDao/v-deo.html

@Stella Aster Ffs nope. It's because of idiots like you that we get the stereotype that we say that everything is greek -.-

GENERALIZING IS NOT GOOD AT ANY ISSUE OF OUR LIVES!!!
This is very wrong depiction of greek restaurants. Greek waiters are super fast and super wffucient, greek restaurants have huge menus and waiters traditionally knew them by heart and also remwmbered the orders my heart knay times and they were fast both cleaning plates making tables and taking orders and delovering non stop and also with very bad pay many times. Greek waiters are super efficient and greek menus have everything except if finished because wveything is fresh and could have gone within the day of there was greay demand but there many other things except for the imeras part which is the day part woth every day having different things. He gor confused by wrong stereotypes here which can be true for some greek workers in certain areas but definitely not waiters
Guys, as a fellow Greek, why are you getting upset? It's a joke - we've been satirizing ourselves since Theophanes and you're upset over a common stereotype? Whether it's true or not, there is a laid-back culture within Greek towns and islands (NOT cities) - so chill out... Have a frappe. Laugh at yourselves once in a while.
how is Tunisia an "obscure place"?
Nowadays when we work we work hard and long hours .. but the rest time we enjoy life , crazy friends and family

In Milan? You are a joke!
Also in italy "no" is "tzs"
Did you really went to Milan? I can take a joke about my country, but when it's funny. The one about the dog, fun joke, the others about Greece, not so. How about making jokes about things that are funny and true instead of cashing for cheap laughs with false stereotypes.

@@was023 then why not use other Italian stereotypes? We have plenty in our country and some that are "truish" and funny (like how in Genova or in Biella people are very stingy). Or how our trains NEVER FUCKING WORK. If he made a joke about being in Milan's station for hours and hours because the train got lost on the road of life, I would have laughed, but people in Milan are always busy and will literally stamp on your body (another stereotype) to get where they want to (Milan is as scary as it's beautiful). The point is that so many comedians don't work for their jokes and more than offended I'm tired of hearing the same jokes over and over without anything to sustain them.
Yeah I kinda I agree with you on that one , keep in mind that he could have had a time limit or something like that tho
@@was023 The problem with a small written test is that it's hard to convey emotion XD so keep in mind that I'm not angry at this comedian, I work in an artistic field with lot of deadlines myself so I get what your're saying, but I've watched a couple of his sketches and they all got this same brand of humor so I still think that he should have researched more and it would have been funnier. I watch a lot of comedy sketches and there are plenty around about Italy that are hilarious (even when made by foreign comedians) because there is substance. I just want to add that having foreign grandparents don't make a person an expert of said foreign country (but the sketch by this comedian about his grandparents was funny because it was about a truish personal experience, not only a routine).
TheGANstudios yeah I totally agree , you just sounded real angry in the first comment .
My friend, i think that you dont know Greece 😅
I'm an American in the comment section near New Jersey and I thought that was fucking hilarious. I didn't even realize it till he said it but I do the... "I'll tell ya" thing, albeit not so pronounced although I've found it's more about showing enthusiasm to whatever emotion the situation calls for. In a way like saying "Oh My God" and how it can be good or bad depending on if you're happy or not.
i am greek and this video cracked the shit out of me laughing.
I'm Greek and I'm not lazy I'm a hard working single mom and I know a lot of hard working Greek people don't know where your from but in Tarpon Springs Florida all the people work really hard at their jobs
It's embarrassing how you described Italy and Greece, with such idiotic stereotypes
Airport service in Italia Is fucking shit though
For us (Greek-American) papou's and yia yia's wonder product was Metaxa, it doesn't really cure the cough; just knocks your ass out.
In Italy is the same thing when you have to say no
I'm Greek American and the wonder product thing is true... For me it was Nyquil (I could sleep no matter if I had a stuffy nose, fever etc...) Now the waiter thing has been better. But all in all I want to see more of this guy!
He probably doesn't know that there are dishes that are cooked e.g. every morning and one can't cook uncountable quantities, he probably thinks everything is cooked on demand. He can't understand that at some point things just finish....

Fabrizio seems a lot like the guy I work with... Funny, lovely, clever, but also totally unworthy for his job somedays, at the point you wanna murder him because sometimes he makes you work twice harder.
The fact is: I'm Italian (as you might have understood) from Cremona and, despite the irony, you've described the mentality in a pretty true way and that was fuckin hilarious to me man.
But still, sometimes I'm more proud of our mindset over the anglo/american... Which is: man, take your time and take it easy, we're all friends 😎
Picture this; Thailand, 2017. 3 backpackers, a Turk, a Greek and a German are trying to get from one town to another, so they take the latest bus. As they arrived a little early-but not too much, they put their stuff in the bus and do some snack shopping. The Turk and the Greek do their shopping fast and arrive at the bus conveniently, but the German...arrives at last minute-in fact we were a little worried that she'd miss the bus while we waited.
So much for the punctuality stereotypes.

I’m just here for the comments. I’m certain they’re going to be epic.
You paid money to watch him? Stopped at 2:00
It is kinda true that taverna's menus are not so accurate but it is not about lazyness.. In Greece we have a different system that the weiter will tell you every single thing in one breath. No greek goes to a restaurant and just ask the menu. Disappointed that Anthony missed that.

Dave Berry says that there is a clause in the Constitution that everyone has to laugh when the words "New Jersey" are uttered, although no one knows why. Notice that that happens here, even before the joke.
I love how it is about Greeks and Italians being lazy and it shows him sitting in the thumbnail doing “stand up” comedy
As a sicilian I've never heard of the "Greeks are lazy" stereotype. I don't think laziness is the first thing that comes to people's mind when thinking about Greece. When It comes to what He said about Italians, at this point I'm not even offended anymore cause Northern Italians call us lazy all the time and they're not comedians. They say that we're lazy to offend us. At least He's a comedian...
So many ugly stereotypes. I have met Australian in the UK, they drink too much, they sell themselves for a job and the women marry only people with money. And I am talking about hundreds of Australians. They are known in the UK for their craziness not for work ethics. Italian and Greeks in the UK on the other end of the spectrum. So if we wanna talk about stereotypes...
Malakies!!!! We are not lazy bro!! You are so jealous 😝😝🇬🇷
This is very wrong. Not sure how much of a “Greek” you are but nothing compares to the hospitality in Greece and Southern Italy. It’s a shame you are a half of both really. If you go to a GREEK taverna in GREECE there is no way they will treat you the way you say. But if you are arrogant and you speak the way you talk in this show, no wonder why they don’t want to serve you
"no way" ? Ναι, καλά ... μάλλον δεν έχεις πάει σε πολλές ταβέρνες σαν πελάτης :p
Πριν δύο εβδομάδες πέτυχα έναν βαρύμαγκα για σερβιτόρο που παραλίγο να βρίσει το τρίχρονο ανηψάκι μου που είναι κολλημένο με τα μακαρόνια. Πριν του πει η μητέρα του οτι δεν παραγγέλνουμε μακαρονάδα σε ψαροταβέρνες, απάντησε το βλαστάρι μας ο σερβιτόρος "οχι και μακαρόνια δω πέρα να'ουμε" λες και είχαμε πάει μαζί στο στρατό. Για να μην μιλήσω μετά για το τι ποιότητας φαγητό μας σέρβίρανε, άστο.
Μετά απορούνε γιατί κάθε χρόνο έχουνε λιγότερους τουρίστες στο συγκεκριμένο μέρος.
Sejuani SupportONLY δεν είπα ότι δεν υπάρχουν και κακής ποιότητας μέρη, αλλά όχι όπως το περιγράφει..κάποιες εξαιρέσεις δεν κρίνουν όλη τη χώρα. Και έχω πάει σε πάρα πολλά μέρη ως ναυτικός που είμαι
Ο καθένας έχει τη γνώμη του φυσικά και εγώ λέω τη δικιά μου ειδικά για τη φιλοξενία της Ελλάδας και της Νότιας Ιταλίας αφού μοιάζουμε πολύ.
Κωμικός είναι. Φυσικά θα υπερβάλει και θα βασιστεί στα στερεότυπα για να κάνει τον κόσμο να γελάσει.
Ive been to plenty restaurants myself and i cant say ive ever experienced amazing friendly service unless the person im with knows the staff. And even then, there is rarely this honest genuine service. But then again, I havent experienced it in NYC either.
Lol the little mouth click for "no" is also a Turkish thing!! Haha also with a little head nod up usually so it confused me for a while the first time I visited Turkey.
I don't think some of the people who commented below get it. He has every right to laugh at himself. In the usa we are big on ethnic jokes, no one said you can t make a living making jokes about your crazy family. They owe you!
Is that a "Juventus" tattoo bro?
Yeah cause they serve you fresh stuff, not frozen unless his referring to foods that are magireuta then yes you would get an answer like that, doubt it he went to a kreato taverna and was told no chicken etc etc
You do the Jersey accent great. They sound like that in Brooklyn too. 😊
There is nothing more untrue than Greeks and Italians been lazy. Try and work 70 hour weeks for 900 euro avg and then tell us if they are lazy.
Anthony, I like the comedy and having a laugh. However my own experience is contrary to these stereotypes.
I would like to see your job performance if you worked for 12 hours per day, 6 days pers week for 600 euros and you have a phd.
I can take all the jokes about Greeks, from a Greek. If you weren't Greek i'd be really pissed right now.
P.S. Good job learning both Italian and Greek.
Hey, at least he pronounces Fabrizio perfectly, LOL!!
I know you probably won't read this and I rarely comment on videos, just wanted to chip in with the rest of the Greek people that did not get butthurt and think it is ridiculous you got that much hate in the comments. Cheers!
The American and Australian system works for the boss and the Greek and Italian system works for the worker... Different perspective
Serious Ryan Gosling vibes tho
Oh, my Gooood... Give the man a break, this is stand up COMEDY, get over yourselfs...don't like it, don't watch it. Simple as that
I wasn’t offended at all by his jokes , I actually found very funny another of his video about the grandpas . The problems with this video are a few , starting with the non funny joke about Tunis in Tunisia , why is it funny ? And Brasília in Brasil ? And than making a joke about people in Milan being lazy , is not offensive , is just not accurate , not true . He could have picked other towns and it would have been more funny , there is plenty to chose from . A comedian is a comedian , his job is to make you laugh so I’m happy if people find him funny (which I did in his other video) , but this video in particular , if you ask me , not so funny . Not offensive , just not funny .
The waiters didn't like you. I never had an issue with the menu.
I hope you are joking because everything I learnt is thanks to the greek values. I like greeks because they have relationship building
Well the idea of a comedian is by telling jokes.....Its not a Ted Talk
Dear tourist @anthonylocascio, the reason there is a shortage in materials in taverns is because in the majority, the protein is fresh. If the fisherman caught 10 kilos of barbounia, your eating-off-the-frozen-pacific-crap ass will eat fresh fish, if you are lucky. I also invite you to work our 10hour shifts in the Greek private sector, and once you come back home from an exhausting day, have some random australian guy (that is "greek-italian" 'cause that's hot) half the globe away telling you "ah..greek people are lazy. I would know! I've been there once!"
I’m half Greek
Every Greek person in this comment section needs to chill out. The guy is a comedian. He generalizes. And he is funny.
No, he might be funny to you, but for me the fact that I'm 23 years old, I work many hours, getting paid really bad, not even able to rent a place or own a car and on the top of it all get to be called lazy, while both my parents have a job (unlike the majority of families in this country) and can barely make it, is, at the very least, a really really unfunny thing.
I find him hilarious.. and I'm also Greek and Italian! But I'm more Greek than Italian, but I still know the difference between a comedy ACT and a real life situation..
I am Greek too and I can understand the fact that you don't like being called lazy.. But this shouldn't offend you personally.. I mean he is a comedian, the Greek lazyness is a typical stereotype and he uses it to make people laugh with it... He doesn't mean it for each and every one of us! Just chill:)
I agree but what he’s talking about is the exemption not the rule..he talks like this like it’s the other way around
I agree with you he really is a good comedian but this was not a good attempt. I am not judging him for lack of sensitivity, for god sakes no, there are no limits in comedy. The problem is that in this case, is that the script lacked essence in its core. He was like an uncle in a family table who eagerly tries to convince you that his story is funny, when it clearly is not. At least this is my opinion!!
Roma Fiumincino....and then straight to McDonald 's ...Italian food. Amazing.
I'm not offended by this, it is just very delusional. Don't get me wrong, I think that making ethnic jokes is fun. At the same time, stereotypes are a bad thing because they produce prejudice and inequalities. You didn't just make ethnic jokes, you've been racist, which is way different. I get why most non-european person are biased when speaking about european countries such as Italy or Greece, they just don't know shit about them. In your case, you're half italian and half greece too, why would you still be prejudicial about these cultures? it is nonsense
Greeks work more than everyone else :) you can find the stats actually.. Our employees work more working hours than everyother country in the world. Oh and paid less.. That is of the 1st world countries. There is no such thing as 8 hour work in Greece. 10 to 14 with 1/3 of the money most people take at best.. Through jokes you try to make some points. The way i see them jokes... a fart would make more sense and more points. Its a shame because he has a heritage he does not understand. He is more american than mediterranean..
Τα στατιστικά που αναφέρεις εσύ και τόσοι άλλοι είναι του ΟΟΣΑ (OECD) και είναι self reported. Αυτό σημαίνει ότι ρωτάνε τους ίδιους τους ανθρώπους πόσες ώρες δουλεύουν κι αυτοί απαντάνε ότι θέλουν. Επίσης είναι γνωστό ότι το να δουλεύεις πολλές ώρες δεν συνεπάγεται ότι είσαι παραγωγικός. Και η Ελλάδα είναι απ'τις τελευταίες χώρες σε παραγωγικότητα. Ακόμη, έχει να κάνει με τα επαγγέλματα. Είναι λογικό να βαράς 12ώρα αν δουλεύεις σεζόν σε ελληνικά νησί αλλά άμα δουλεύεις σε γραφείο κάνοντας πνευματική εργασία κάνεις το 9-5 σου και είσαι καλυμμένος. Τέλος, το γεγονός ότι στην Βόρεια Ευρώπη όλο και περισσότερο δίνεται η ευκαιρία στον εργαζόμενο να work from home είναι μαγκιά τους. Ας μην το κάναμε μπουρδελο το μαγαζί να είχαμε κι εμείς την πολυτέλεια να το κάνουμε.
@@georgem3270 Ενταξει ας το παρουμε απο την αρχη. Το αν ειναι παραγωγικη μια χωρα δεν καθοριζει την παραγωγικοτητα των κατοικων της. Η χωρα δεν ειναι παραγωγικη, οχι οι κατοικοι. Πηγη wiki "Οι διαπραγματεύσεις του Ο.Ο.Σ.Α. αφορούν την φορολογία μεταφοράς καθώς και την τιμολόγηση προϊόντων. Με άλλα λόγια ο Ο.Ο.Σ.Α., έχει προετοιμάσει το έδαφος για τις διμερείς φορολογικές συνθήκες σε όλο τον κόσμο." Πιστευεις οτι με τετοια δραση (παγκοσμια σε ολες τις ανεπτυγμενες κοινωνιες) τους παιρνει να κανουν λαθος ας πουμε? Εσυ το λες αυτο (;;;;) που υποστηριζεις ξενοφερτες τακτικες και πολιτικες (απο οτι καταλαβα). Εκτος αν σου αρεσει να μηδενιζεις τα παντα, ακομα και τους ανθρωπους που μεγαλωσες μαζι (σου προτεινω να ταξιδεψεις, και να κανεις πανω απο μια δουλεια θα ανοιξει το μυαλο σου). Οσον αφορα την πνευματικη εργασια μην το ψαχνεις καν.. χιλιαδες παραδειγματα σε ολα τα επαγγελματα τριτοβαθμιας εκπαιδευσης θα σε πεισουν για το αντιθετο. Οπως επισης οτι το 40% των νεων Ελληνων εφυγαν εξω και διαπρεπουν σε πολυ ανταγωνιστικοτερα (κατα την αποψη σου μονο) περιβαλλοντα. Ξερεις ποσοι δικηγοροι και γιατροι και μηχανικοι αφηνουν τις δουλειες τους? Μηπως δε δουλευουν και αυτοι πολυ? Επισης μπουρδελο το μαγαζι το εκαναν οι πολιτικοι που ψηφιζατε μαζι με τους ξενους ομοιδεατες τους. Κατι πουλημενα τομαρια που προδωσαν τον λαο τους και πουλησαν την ευημερια της Ελλαδος. Και ολο αυτο εγινε με τη "συμπαρασταση" ανθρωπων που μηδενιζαν οτι εβρισκαν μπροστα τους (και εγω μεσα εδω) και κατι αλλων που διαλεγαν πλευρα στα παιχνιδια των πολιτικων μας που ολοι ξερουμε οτι δουλευουν για το κεφαλαιο και τις τραπεζες. Για εμας παντως δε δουλευουν. Για τη δουλεια απο το σπιτι δεν εχω να πω κατι προφανως ας κανουν οτι τους επιτρεπει η οικονομια τους.
@@Ostathis Φιλαράκι λάθος μέρος βρήκες να κάνεις rant για το ποιοί κατέστρεψαν την χώρα. Δουλεύω στην Αγγλία εδώ και 3 χρόνια. Μην μου λες να ταξιδέψω και να αλλάξω δουλειές για να ανοίξει το μυαλό μου. Εγώ σου παραθέτω επιχειρήματα κι εσύ μου απαντάς άσχετα πράγματα. Επίσης μην απολογείσαι. Η Ελλάδα είναι ένα failed state και δεν είπε κανείς ότι φταις εσύ γι αυτό.
@@georgem3270 Δεν απολογουμαι, δεν παραληρω (μιλα ελληνικα ρε παιχτη), στα επιχειρηματα σου απαντησα ενα προς ενα με καθολου ασχετα πραγματα εν αντιθεση με σενα που με ψυχολογησες κι'ολας... Πως λες οτι δεν απαντησα; Μηπως δε διαβασες; Κατεστραμενο κρατος ειναι απο τους πολιτικους και μονο απο αυτους. Απο οτι καταλαβαινω μιας και πηγες Αγγλια για να δουλεψεις (να σου πω οτι αλλοι μεγαλωσαμε εξω) καταλαβαινω γιατι μηδενιζεις τη χωρα σου και γιατι ανυψωνεις ανεπαρκης πολιτισμους πανω απο τον δικο σου/μας. Γιατι σου βαζει λεφτακια στην τσεπη σωστα; Επισης ισως σου εδωσε την ευκαιρια να εισαι καποιος αλλος απο αυτον που ξερουν οι δικοι σου εδω (μια νεα αρχη, να χτισεις ενα χαρακτηρα που σου αρεσει ισως;;) Αδερφε αν σου αρεσει τοσο η βορειοκεντρικη Ευρωπη στο ευχομαι να κατσεις εκει 4 ζωες..Εγω μεγαλωσα εκει και στην Ωκεανια.. Εφυγες στο εξωτερικο για τα φραγκα και καλα εκανες. Δεν θα μας πεις για κουλτουρα ομως φιλε απο Αγγλια.. Οταν με το καλο φτιαξει η χωρα εσυ μεινε εξω. Επισης παντου το ιδιο ειναι, μεταξυ μας παντα.. Το μαντρι αλλαζει τα προβατα ιδια ειναι. Εσυ διαλεγεις να μιλας αρνητικα για μια χωρα που σε μορφωσε και σου εδωσε 4000 χρονια πολιτισμου με προγονους που ζηλευει η παγκοσμια ιστορια. Εγω λοιπον απο τα δικα μου ταξιδια, απο μικρο παιδι βλεπω οτι λιγοι ειναι σαν τους Ελληνες.. Μετρημενοι λαοι ειναι σαν εμας. Ξερεις ποιοι ειναι ιδιοι παντου? Οι πολιτικοι.. Φιλικα παντα, απλα κουραστηκα να τα ριχνουμε ολα στους Ελληνες. Τρωτε τον συστημικο παπα, μα εννοια σας..Η αλλαγη δεν αργει να ερθει..
@@Ostathis Τόσα ξέρεις τόσα λες για την Αγγλία και τον πολιτισμό της. Δεν έχεις ιδέα μάλλον τι έχει παράξει πολιτισμικά αυτός ο τόπος τους τελευταία 5 αιώνες. Τι έχεις προσσφερει στην επιστήμη, στην μουσική, στην λογοτεχνία και άλλα. Τυχαίνει να μιλάς σε μισό Έλληνα, μισό Αγγλο οπότε εγώ δεν τα βλέπω τα πράγματα τόσο μονοδιάστατα όσο εσύ γιατί τυχαίνει να ξέρω και τους 2 κόσμους. Δεν έφυγα για τα λεφτά. Έφυγα για να ξεφύγω από μία σάπια και διεφθαρμένη κοινωνία που είναι προσκολλημένη στο παρελθόν. Τα λεφτά είναι ένα bonus. "Όταν με το καλό φτιάξει η χώρα..." Και πότε λες να γίνει αυτό? Εγώ προσωπικά μόνο Ελλάδα έχω μέσα στην καρδιά μου αλλά η αλλαγή που περιμένεις δεν πρόκειται να έρθει. Οι Έλληνες έχουν τους πολιτικούς που τους αξίζουν. Όσο και να μου λείπει ο ήλιος, η θάλασσα, οι φίλοι μου, η Ελλάδα δεν είναι χώρα για να χτίσεις ζωή. Δεν χρειάζεται να συμφωνείς μαζί μου. Αυτή είναι η άποψη μου και μακάρι τα πράγματα να ήταν αλλιώς..
Poveretto, che cazzate non si direbbero pur di guadagnarsi il pane
Fabricio could easily be Kostas or Vaggos.
*:) shame to anyone who misunderstands Antony's jokes is true and we should not be ashamed of just accepting them and correcting them (btw είμαι Έλληνας)*
μάλλον εσύ είσαι τεμπέλης φαίνεται γιατί εγώ που δεν είμαι με προσβάλει
So good to finally find a real Italian comedian!
Guys...I get it...u don't like being called lazy but he is joking about stereotypes! He is a stand up comedian!
Lamb not goat. I've never eaten goat in Greece.
"I tell ya" 😂😂😂
Top bloke re ! Love it
In America, you forgot the, "Not for nothing" in every sentence. Which atcually sounds more like: Notfonuthin
oh god.. another tourist.. another sad story..
im greek and this is funny as fuck chill out
Sure because this LIAR lumps you in with Italians. Greeks are this, Italians are top 10 military, economy, wealthiest country, #1 greatest continuous history/Greece dormant for 2000 years.
Isn t he a real jerk?
I’m Greek and loved this clip!!! You other Greeks need to chill and find your sense of humor!
Savastano at Gomorrah does the same for a "no". More things we share with southern Italians!
Yes the "ntz" sound for no is something we also have and often use in italy. Love to Greece ❤️
I'm American and thought this was funny but I don't agree with tip system completely. Most still tip for sucky service because we want to go back to the place again or we know they make nothing.
Anthony Locascio ! Man, get a real job...
