Greece and its creditor banks, racing against the clock to reach an agreement to avert a disorderly bond default, packed up work without a deal on Friday but with more talks likely next week.

Standard & Poor’s is set to downgrade the credit ratings of several eurozone countries later on Friday, but not those of Germany and the Netherlands, a senior eurozone government source said.
That's typical in a lot of ways.

Greek guy 1 - "Gentlemen we're facing a crisis of significant proportions, we've got a upcoming deadline to avoid a default we have to work until we . . . . "

Watch beeps

Greek guy 1 - "That's lunch, good work men, we'll reconvene after a hearty meal and a afternoon nap"

4 hours later

Greek Guy 1 - "Ok Gentlemen we all look well rested, lets roll up our sleeves and get this puzzle solved"

watch beeps

Greek Guy 1 - "Hmm, that's 4:30 gentlemen, lets pack it up, go spend a nice weekend resting up and we'll get this ####### solved when we get to work on Monday at 11:00, have a great weekend"

Greek Guy 2 to Greek Guy 3 - "Man these people are total ballbusters, I've never worked so hard in my life"
