Weird how this conflicts with basically all available data about working hours within the EU where is often at the very top on average. What is your statement based on?
If you believe those stats, Germans are the laziest nation in Europe while Greeks are the most hardworking lmao. Do you believe it?
Are these the kind of statistics that omit stay-at-home parents but have the average pulled down by people working part time that wouldn't work otherwise?
So you're assuming I base my point on studies that are all wrong and yet you don't provide even a single pointer to what your initial statement stems from?
