God bless the French, they do love a birra’ industrial action. Local patisserie burns your croissant? Strike. Wife takes a second lover? Strike. Massive, global developer threatens the livelihood of you and your colleges? Strike. But perhaps, given the global rise in unemployment as we are all forced to sit at home and write articles derailing French stereotypes, we can at least empathise (although a burnt croissant is nothing to be taken lightly). This is exactly what Blizzard have done. Announcing their intention to close their office in Versailles, Blizzard would put almost 300 employees out of a job.
