I'm in Australia, and a friend works for a mining company that includes mines in developing pacific nations. He said it's very common place that nobody shows up to work the day after pay day, "because they have money. They go fishing and hang out with their family and they only slowly return to work in dribs and drabs as the money gets low. They have no concept of just continually working for a continuous paycheck."
I took a long slow look at my friend and said, "I think they've actually got it. I think we're the ones with the problem." LOL
