The day I was born, one Thursday of April in 2002, La Generalitat decided to give more time to its civil servants to be with their young children (under one year). They could reduce their working day a third, earning the same.
Teachers, doctors and others could spend more time with their children than they did a year before. But including this new desicion, other european states treated better his families, giving some economic helpings, or more time.
This day, also, the American secretary of State, Colin Powell failed in his peace mission in Egypt. The president, Mubarak, decided to refuse the meeting with Powell. Powell went there on a peace mission.
