No fucking way. This post is incorrect,my friend.
if you work less than 2000 hours a year you're literally a lazy piece of shit holyfuck
It's like you don't even want to do your part for your country
>>52738307

Its not about working hard, its all about working clever.
>>52738684
Kek, God your life is pathetic.
At a perfect level. Norwegians are very productive as it is, and I don't think there is any point in increasing or decreasing the amount of workhours.
>>52738596
Why would that be unbelievable?
>>52738615
On your deadbed your biggest regret will be that you have wasted to much of your life working.
Today is my day off.
I believe we live in a twisted world, we have created a bizarre system in which we keep telling ourselves that world will never be complete, but by working harder and more it will be more complete tomorrow. I fully believe 20-30% of our current work hours are spent inefficiently, and dropping those hours wouldn't reduce the output of our work and would increase our free time (and personal happiness). We have the technology to keep good living standards without working ourselves to the grave, it's just we are missing the will to do so.
I know i know, sounds bit commie doesn't it? No it doesn't, has nothing to do with communism, but just the idea we are building a sick and twisted world.
i`ve never worked in my entire life

France in a nutshell. I worked in the US
Those retards have barely any vacations, social policies and time to enjoy life (even tho they think they do).
And I have witnessed that, while everyone in France is home at 5pm. Most of my coworkers stayed til 7:30pm and barely got anything done past 3:00pm.
They are getting cucked by life.
>>52738307
8 hour average workday times 365 minus some holidays... works out to that number I guess. Probably a bit less since people take sick leave and have other errands to run while workday. And I don't think most people are at their post 8 o'clock sharp and close shop 17:00, though these variations are probably accounted for.
>>52739127
continued
Whereas I am now back in France.
And I enjoy high living standards and time with my friends and my family (and /int/) while americans are still working their butt off and aren't as productive.
Get shit done and then go home.
>>52739127
Maybe that's why your economy is hot garbage.
>>52738756
Who gives a shit. How long does someone spend on their deathbed anyway. Whatever it is it's a very small proportion of ones overall life.
Being efficient is more important than ours. Which explains why germany and norway have the best economies on the list.
In japan you stay at the job and sleep or jerk off to hentai until your boss goes home. Who is also doing nothing.
Then you ponder harakiri on the overstuffed train home
>>52739200
Isnt it the 5th largest econy on earth?
Its just 65mil people.

It's true. Longest hours, very, very mediocre pay. Minimum wage here is 4 US dollars a DAY. That's like 40 cents an hour. Meanwhile a politician makes millions a year and does nothing.

asias fisheries are dying off completely due to over fishing, soon you will be able to export fish for a ton of money to chinese
>>52739365
you are only 4 people thats why
>>52738307
So this is mostly dependent on number of part-time workers, isn't it?
>>52739263
go ask any economist what they think about the current concept of efficiency and enjoy getting your opinion rekt

Amazingly accurate, 6 weeks vacation and 6 weeks free days every year so around 1600 work hours per year in Sweden.
I guess the more developed, technically advanced and healthy a country is the shorter the work hours.
I am taking my hat off for the countries below Sweden in the list.
>>52739352
Tell that to our immigrants that bust their asses off in your desert country.
>>52739431
>world war jews getting smug
>>52738596
From what I understand overtime is never reported in Japan so it's massively skewed.
In the future we will work either 4 day weeks or 6hour days. No point spending 40+ hours at work
>>52738763
>We have the technology to keep good living standards without working ourselves to the grave, it's just we are missing the will to do so.
The secret is machines, but paying 50 bucks per month for a indian to work is better than expending money in them, that's the raw truth.

Maybe but in Finland we will work until we are 75 years old
>>52739895
Shortsightedness is the problem. We arent able to make decisions on long time frame.
>>52740025
Or maybe we produce a system in which we work less the older we get? No need to be negative Nancy about it.
>this bullshit
I'm fed up with Japanese work ethic. that's not useful to be happy.
>>52739895
Exploiting people who have no choice - what century is it in Brazil? 19th?
Look at the top 11 and then the bottom 11 countries. Apparently there's a somewhat strong negative correlation between working hours and firstworldiness
>>52738307
doesn't sweden have like 6 hour working days tho?
>>52740124
So Germans really work 3.75 hours per day?
>>52738307

Its funny how Singapore doesn't agree on OECD terms and is not part of that list
>>52740307
that's because a lot of their work commitments are off the clock
>>52740325
It's not about the sheer numbers. We are not full of Faulpelze but we have quite a good efficiency compared to many other countries in the world.
>>52739387

>France being that high
bullshit
>>52739127
It is true, we don't have the luxury of going on strike every time we do not feel like going to work.
Demanding higher pay for doing literally NOTHING extra
>>52740241
Well we do get a lot of vacation and somewhere between 36h and 40h is considered a normal full week. There are also many working half time.
If you only look at economic numbers, we are one of the most successful countries in Europe and even in the world. The DAX is forecasted to grow further and further in 2016. Efficiency is key, not the pure amount of hours.

Not true. after a 5 year commitment you can opt for citizenship OR if you are injured you can get it early for blood shed

what's a lot? we have 28 working days by law usually in standard contracts

At least you are not a shithole, look at us, is disgusting. Too much working hours for a third world country and we will always be third world country no matter what.

>>52738307
I used to be a leftist (due to highschool indoctrination) but after I graduated from school I got two good decent jobs and for months I worked 80+ hours a week among lazy coworkers who didn't actually do their job and at the same time complained about the "unfair system", rich people, politicians or how they were "forced" to live paycheck to paycheck and couldn't save shit (they spent all their spare money on alcohol, partying, weed, lottery tickets or the latest iPhone).
Since then I've had no compassion for "wageslaves". They're dumb, lazy people with zero economic sense and no long term vision.
>inb4 mad neets
>>52740889
You have like 4 weeks of vacation per year - not including sunday which is no working day - you are not allowed to let your people work in that day excluding some special exeptions.
1371/(365-35-11*4) would be 4.74 working hours per day if you work also saturdays
5.59 if you calculate it for a 5 day week.
Thats actually not the case - full employed people normally work in a 40h workhours a week in a 5 day week.
Parttimers do around 19hs a week.
Both numbers are from a 2014 statistic.
>>52738615
If everyone works too much and does it for the country, who profits from it? I guess the worker are somehow not the country.
>ITT: People that work more than me don't really work hehe, they just stay there chatting n' shiet
Entitled as fuck t.bh
>>52738684
Basically you could learn several languages instead of this.
9 to 6, 6 days a week(54 per week) is around average.
>>52740119
How often do people complain about the long work hours at companies? Do most people suck it up and work their life away or is the idea of long hours fading away?
>>52741196
Are you fucking kidding me!?
What the fuck Canada, you have worked hard for those days with your family. You better enjoy those days off of yours and tell him to go get cucked. Seriously fuck this guy.
Life is short, enjoy your good health and your family while there are sitll here.
And again. Tell this bastard to go fuck himself.

That's bullshit.
I was an average office worker and my yearly working hours are ALWAYS over 2700 hours.
>>52752623
You worked over time?
>>52752653
No, my bosses did. And I only got a extra pay for 40 hours at maximum. rest were on the house.
American works longer than Japanese.
>>52739365
No offense but you are a cold island in the middle of nowhere. What sort of economy would you want?
Fuark, time to go study engineering and move to Deutschland.
I have absolutely no fucking clue how they came up with Germany's numbers unless they counted every single part-time waitress towards them because in permanent employment with 40 hour weeks you work roughly 1800 hours a year.
>>52738307
the time I'm choking off my soul.
>tfw I saw middle-age boss who are being enslaved too long and even proud of it.
Did the payroll today, end of the month and all that. 1803,25 hours worked this year. I'd say roughly a third of that was just me sitting on my ass. Seems about right.
>>52738364
It's true. My friend is currently living in mexico, they work 11 hours a day 6 days a week with like 5 vacation days in a year.
Weird to see this thread still alive.
>>52754229
Like I earlier said >>52738763 20-30% of the work we do is just working for the sake of working, not actually doing or producing anything that improves our quality of life.
>>52739127
>7:30pm and barely got anything done past 3:00pm.
Tbh. Lots of time is wasted at work here
>>52738307
how much are Mexican siestas being counted toward "working hours"?
>>52738307
>>52754351
None, goddamn stereotypes, they are not even accurate. Nobody, and I mean, nobody takes siestas here, we don't even have time for them.
Wonder why Mexicans prefer working like slaves in your country? Because it's way worse here, for 10 times less pay.
>>52738307
This chart actually tells very little.
The portion of people who work part time and people who work full time are different in each country. I assume this chart has combined both full time and part time workers, leading to countries like Greece being on top (9% of people work part time) while countries like Germany are on the bottom (26% of people work part time).
If you wanted to know how long working hours are in each country, you should only be comparing the working hours of full time workers. This shit leads you to think that working in Japan isn't horrible, because the fact that 40% of their workers are part time puts them in the middle of the chart, when in full time working hours they'd be on the top.
>>52754309
>quality of life
I'd probably be doing the exact same thing if I were at home as I now do during those hours at work - read books, browse internet. Doesn't bother me too much. What I dislike is that during winter months it eats up all the daylight hours.
