It means that the French work 35 hours a week. It also says to suck it, Americans.
>>
>>55439766
To be honest, I don't know. The management doesn't check if we actually clocked in (working days × 8 hours) per month, and since once day I leave earlier, another day I stay late a bit, I have no idea how many hours I actually spend at work.

And a Ching Chong Nippon to you too.

>>55439780
I don't know what's this about desu
Seems it's about how rich americans call french lazy for working 35 hours a week while they take advantage of pension funds to load their capitalist ass with private money
Pension Funds aren't a thing in France I think
>>
The french are the literal joke of europe
No one likes dumb frenchies le haw haw

It exist but not in a capitalist way.

40 hours a week

But I have to take a 30 minute unpaid lunch break so I'm at work 42.5 hours a week
And my commute is about 60 minutes round trip (20 minutes down, 40 back because traffic), so work really eats about 47.5 hours of my week

I'm working with LaunchCode to get into web development, hopefully they are less faggoty about work life balance than insurance

Basically, frenchs work to pay others people retirement, when themselves aren't guaranteed to be able to retire because of this big socialist scheme requiring high birth rate.

My office doesn't have set hours. That's been common in all IT jobs I've had. You generally work 9-5 but it's not like we're micromanaged. As long as you come in, get your shit done, and leave who cares? Sometimes it's 9-6 or 6:30. Really depends on how many projects I have and when I hit a stopping point.
>>
>>55439766
72 hours per week... although some of that time I am semi-asleep/dozing at my desk.
>>
>>55439885
Pension funds are indeed a little thing in France. Due to the fact that our pensions are organised by the government trough taxes.
Also the cartoon is obviously from a left wing paper, that criticize Pensiun Funds that try to change work labor laws in France in order to diminish the social welfare (yes, you are a big loby in Europe and influence our way of living).
Now only workers can profit of the 35 hours / week, most white collars (included me) works 45-50 hours a week.

clocking programming work is literally stupid
>>
>>55439766
I come in around 12.00 and leave around19.30, including 1-1.5 hours of lunch break and numerous bathroom as well as tea kitchen rounds. Comes out at around 30-40 hours per week I suppose.

There are also days where I come in at 9.00 and leave early or come in at 18.00 and work late in order to accommodate a meeting and/or different time zones.

(Doesn't apply when shit happens.)

Absolutely nobody cares as long as the job gets done and I'm available for people who might need me.

Been keeping it down to 40 hours at the family buissness. Want out learning to be a dba right now and programmer. Hopefully Ill be able to spend more time learning tech as a dba. Surrounded by pejeets and Muslims by the way. They are dumb and a couple are sensitive about the religion but mostly ok near Chicago here.

Thank god their pop is low or we would end up like europe.

>>55439766
America works a minimum of 40 hours a week.

>>55439973
So literally social security then

Goddamn dirty frogeaters. They're worse than frogposters.

Idk. Come in whenever leave whenever. Most people here stay for 8 meme hours. I just stay until I feel like it
>>
>>55439766
0 hours since I quit my job at Best Goy.
I am now NEET-mode.
>>
>>55439766
No set amount of hours. I'm a programmer and I have a base of year round contracts. They don't always give me work to do but pay me a base salary to maintain everything. Sometimes I need to work more to finish a project, sometimes hardly at all. Make about 70k a year. It's enough for my wife and I.

The only shit thing is benefits. I need to provide my own healthcare and it's gotten expensive thanks to the "affordable care act".
