The daily coffee break is part of daily life for many Italians. In an Italian small town, of all things, a mayor now removes the coffee machines from the town hall and the city library. The employees had spent too much time drinking coffee, he complains.
“People had to wait to do their paperwork, while the staff with the espresso in their hands for the machines was chatting,” Mayor Stefano Soldan represents the newspaper “Corriere del Veneto”. In recent months, the population of the small town of Pieve di Soligo in the North -Italian region of Veneto would have complained that there were too long waiting times in the community.
Employees must go in cafe bar
He warned the 56 employees not to overdo it with the breaks, but “all warnings were useless,” explains Soldan. The employees of the city must now officially eradicate for their break and drink the coffee outside. “There is no shortage of café bars here,” says the mayor. “Or you bring your thermos at home,” he proposes.
He is probably not happy to introduce this regulation because he says: “I was told that clearer rules were needed. But I think: everything that is needed is a bit of common sense and courtesy towards the community and colleagues.”
The trade unions are also upset. It is unjust that the behavior of some of the fewer urban employees is less disadvantageous, the criticism is. The trade unions now demand that the mayor reverses the measure.
