When I moved here, I noticed that Portugal is pretty noisy. I mean - factories and roads are to close to a residential property. I can hear the noise of an oil refinery right now, although I don't live in an industrial zone.
I'm happy that I'm not the only one who notice this. Perhaps it will change someday.

Well, the law should change as soon as possible, if telework is mandated, they should implement a law to help workers in that industry. Having a disrespectful neighbor that plays music all day long is something while you are working. It is common sense to have this kind of law to help teleworkers like myself.
