Only Americans believe that 130 hours in the office constitutes a 130 hour working week. Which is why the French work 35 hours a week, yet Airbus is as productive as Boeing.


French don't work 35 hours a week, we work much more than that. Only basic employees do that. I probably have around a 50 hours work week.


But then you have extra vacation days...


You mean as outsourced as Boeing?
