Bossnapping.

As much as it go's against the grain to credit the French with anything, I have to hand it to the French; they do stage damn fine protests.

PARIS (Reuters) - Almost half of French people believe it is acceptable for workers facing layoffs to lock up their bosses, according to an opinion poll published Tuesday.

Staff at French plants run by Sony, 3M and Caterpillar have held managers inside the factories overnight, in three separate incidents, to demand better layoff terms -- a new form of labour action dubbed "bossnapping" by the media.

Throw in blockading Paris, burning UK lorries, sulking, pouting and otherwise being typical surly indolent Frenchfolk. 

That said if your going to be out of work, lets capture le boss for le higher payoff.
