The problems of the Italian civil service system were severely hacked once in this film. Although it is not an easy thing to be admitted to a civil service in Italy, once you get the iron job of a civil servant, then you will have A divine halo. It is relatively early to go back to work at 11:30 (the guards help you punch in in advance). Basically, there is nothing to do at work, and the receipt of other people's things (of course not of high value) is also a kind of courtesy, but you Whether it is sent or not will be done according to the regulations, so the clerks do not think this is bribery.

When politicians come to power and say they want to change the status quo, but because they cannot offend the public, people who are outside the eight regulations need to be transferred or dismissed.

The problem is that despite the high compensation for dismissal, the protagonist of the story is unwilling to give up his iron job.

As a result, the person responsible for dismissing the job often changes the protagonist's job based on pressure, and even is assigned to work in the North Pole, but the protagonist unexpectedly gets love and a new life because of this.

The whole film is full of humor, and it also exposes the problems of the Italian civil service. But in a populist and high-welfare Europe, it's not just Italy that has problems? It's just strange that the huge group of civil servants created by the high welfare system has not affected the efficiency of administrative work. Perhaps it is because they have high requirements for the quality of civil servants, and the country can support many iron rice bowls. But getting an iron rice bowl is not so easy.
