The article says that as people work in air conditioned offices the siesta is redundant but their must be a bigger proportion who don't, say road workers, imagine doing manual labour outside at 3:00 p.m. in August

Don't knock the Siesta, it empties our pool and the beach and makes shopping in Lidl much easier, I think they should extend it.
