doing grocery in Swizterland

New residents in Swizterland found shops opening hours are very annoying which caused them feel irritate and anger. All shops close at 12 in noon and re-open at 1.30 PM or 2 PM because everyone goes home for lunch. But this is not the most annoying things brining people anger, to answer this is the Holidays in Swizterland. Many people hurry themselves to do grocery after work, usually stores close at 5 or 5.30PM from Monday to Friday. But when they finally get to the stores, the stores were closed because of the Swiss holiday, and many foreigners don’t know what’s going on, they see a sign saying “holidays closed” posted on the door, they look at the dictionary and finally know what the sign means. The case like this, it’s the worse enough, the most worse case is you rush to stores on Thursday or Friday afternoon, and you realized no shops open on holidays which means you will have no food, no toilet paper…from Thursday / Friday till next Monday. Therefore, people will try to finish doing their groceries whenever they get off from work each day.
