Women are also *way* less likely to come staggering in hungover daily.

They serve alcohol in the cafeteria during breaks.


BTW..I don't remember seeing any women working in the factory (other than the tour guides) both times I was there. 

Maybe I just didn't care because it doesn't really matter?!

WTF..should it!!      

Personally I would rather have a woman assembling my bike. Us men can get too distracted at times...

I could never do it; I'm way too easily dis- Oh hey! A shiny!

I know most major auto makers have women as final paint quality checkers, women have much better color recognition than men.

Yeah I remember seeing that - I also remember the group of grown men rummaging through bowl the sugar sachets to find their bike's sugar (yes they have differing models on the sugar sachets)

I know they run two shifts there, so maybe the women to do one or the other.
And I agree, it really doesn't matter, but I did find it interesting, none the less.

So I guess we need a more recent idea of what the hell is going on in Bologna... Ok Ok I'll do it.

I will be in Italy in about a month to tour the factory... and oh yeah see Italy.

The wife is all happy to see Itally and all of these things she keeps telling me are there. I keep telling here there are only a few things to see in Italy. 1. Ducati 2. Ferrari she doesn't get it.

But I think women are better suited for factory work... well maybe except for JBubble.. becuase they pay attention to detail and do not get distracted.  I would dream of riding those bikes all day and maybe get one done.

That and if the woman has a job, I don't have to and get more riding time.
