This is BREAKING NEWS, people. We’ve heard all about how hard Asians work–sometimes to the death–but no one has bothered to figure out how we do it!
Wait, how do we do it? Easy.
TWINS.
See, it works like this: you basically rope your identical twin into working the same exact job as you without telling anyone, share opposite hours and voila, the whole world thinks you’re a work-a-holic robot. It also helps if you and your twin are married to a pair of identical twins, too. Alright, so most of us don’t have the luxury of being a twin but a pair of twin couples in China made this work.
Customers dubbed the pair the “robot couple” because of their marathon hours, which involved opening the restaurant at 6am and apparently still being there to close it up at 3am.
But it has now emerged that the restaurant in the city of Yiwu in eastern China is actually run by two couples – and both the men and the women are identical twins.

Now that’s what I call a brilliant work ethic. So who wants to be my twin right now so I can go home and nap?

This is pretty crazy... I am sure that anyone who is close to them will realize they are not the same person. Most twins; while identical in appearance, will have personality traits that distinguish them.
This is pretty funny. Since there are so many Asians in the world, I bet one could find our twin . Maybe there should be some site like myasiantwin.com ? I know I found my brother's twin.
