I tried to call Air France HK today, at 5.01 pm — New Year’s Eve, Chinese version — and after navigating through a trilingual menu, ended up on a recorded message saying “Sorry, our
offices are open from 9 am to 6 pm. If you need yada yada, web site yada yada.

Dude. It’s 5 pm, and your office closes at 6, and you’ve already left for the day? That little civil-servant culture of working as little as possible has apparently reached the shores of China…

Blech.
