Labour Day, Bangladesh style
As Victorians head off for the Labour Day long weekend, this video — shot by a tourist in Khulna, Bangladesh in 2008 — is a good reminder that the concept of hard work is relative.

It must be difficult heading up one of the world’s largest companies. Harder still trying to emerge from the shadow of that company’s founder, one of the world’s most famous men.
