It can’t be easy with all the 5 week vacations, 37,5h work week, and basic workers rights to try to develop as much as the US dev sweatshop. Let’s not even mention ma/paternity leave.

Edit: Seems yet again I’ve managed to showcase a lil bit of my ignorance. Learning is fun. I’m not sure if the downvoting is happening because of my sarcasm or if my sarcasm wasn’t obvious, or for other reasons🙂.

Better working conditions does not mean worse productivity

No, it was all a bit of joke, I guess. I know from personal experience that the opposite is true.

37,5h work week, I wish. Although I have 6 weeks guaranteed vacation, one extra day for night shifts and 2 regeneration days which are basically vacation days

I got 9 weeks vacation, work 38 hours. That’s why unions matter.

Yeah I was guessing that part. It’s 37.5 for me in DK. Still waiting for the 4 day work-week.
