Workoholic culture among Hispanics.

My father who is from Mexico works too much and has no social life. He tells me that I am lazy if I just want to work 40 hours a week. We were talking the other day about work ethic and I told him that I love the American saying 'Work smart not hard'. He got mad at me and told me that I am 'lazy' and 'spoiled' like most Americans. While growing up, he used to tell me that Hispanics were better workers than Americans because we work 'harder'.
