瑞典大学的规矩是,老师和学生都迟到,上课时间是八点半,八点四十进教室,九点来齐了就阿弥陀佛。只有从摇篮到坟墓的高福利国家才能惯出这样的毛病来。吃了几次早来的亏,我也入乡随俗,保证八点四十五进教室。奇怪的是,这一次教室里还是空空荡荡,我冲了杯咖啡,边喝边看比尔·奥古斯特的《斯拉米对雪的感觉》。 The rules of the Swedish university are that both the teacher and the student are late, the class time is half past eight, eight forty into the classroom, nine o’clock to Amitabha. Only high-welfare countries, from cradle to grave, can suffer from such problems. Eat a few times earlier loss, I also roam the Romans, to ensure that eight forty-five into the classroom. Curiously, this time in the classroom was still empty, and I had a cup of coffee and watched Bill August’s “Slam-meter’s feeling of the snow.”
