What a douche.
Guess what? People are messy. But more importantly, people are valuable.
The author can whine all he likes. But really, try getting something done without them. Oh, wait, he says he's not going to even try... why are we reading this?

The author is describing a lot of negative legal aspects in his country that make running a successful business nigh impossible.
The reason that the article irked me:
Imagine this combination: brilliant, an MSc in CompSci, being over 50, female, not white, and an immigrant.
I tried to get her hired for the IT department where I worked. Instead she was cheated out of her pay and fired before the standard employee trial period ended. Standard practice for the place. (900 employees in four years, avg occupancy of 50 workers, anyone mid-level and up is white only, and as soon as a project was over almost everybody is fired, continuity of work is not the issue).
I've heard all the same excuses before in a much friendlier business environment. All in an attempt to treat people like they are not human beings. I know nothing about the author and I'm not disputing the realities of business in Hungary. But damn I want to shoot the message.
And a swath of downvotes in an attempt to do so is worth that...
