    A few years back the Belgium administrators were payed in advance ! Their lazyness and absentism is legendary !

    They changed all that due the public demand for action ! We couldn 't even pay our taxes on time anymore !

    In addition, this was a established right, written down in the law ! Due to the equally- principle of our constitution administrators are now payed at the end of the month, like those working in the pri- vate- sector.
