Germany: towards 32 hour week - "It represents a fairer distribution of the wealth created by productivity gains in the industry created by the workers" - eviltoast

“For far too long, the lion’s share of the benefits from our increased efficiency has gone to the top, sidelining those who are at the very heart of this production. It’s time to level the playing field, ensuring that our workers directly benefit from these advancements by offering them improved working conditions and an enhanced quality of life.”

    When everybody complains about making shit money at 40 hours and I’m making 90k a year I’d find it hard to switch. Also, to add, what jobs are so easy to transition to and find employment? Remember when the west Virginia coal miners were told to learn to code, then had tremendous trouble finding employment anyway?
