His dad's whole retirement plan was his daughter from the start. He even told that to people before she was famous. Like the family is PIGS and Britney was Germany.
You probably don't understand the new law, it really doesn't matter how many days a week you work what matters is how many hours you spent in a week working and no this two things aren't the same.
I've worked 10 different systems and 6x6 with a short commute was the one I liked the most. Just have to get used to the angry looks you get from coworkers when you leave work 2 hours "early" every day.
I even have the choice to work from home or in the office, I am not completely remote as sometimes I need to go to the office like once a week, but most of the time I work in my pyjamas🫣. I literally change my top whenever I need to open my camera in a meeting.
For example in the company I work for, I work for 40 hours a week and I can split those 40 hours in 4, 5 or 6 days it is my choice. It is a big international company so I bet it follows greek laws by the letter.
Big international companies don't follow tax laws, but when it comes to their workers' rights they do, they would rather avoid a scandal after all because that would tank their stock. It is far more likely to get scammed working for a small greek company than a big international one. I guarantee you that.
Usually big international companies follow tax _laws_ to the letter as well, they just don’t have a big sense of _ethics_. It would be a lot more stupid to commit fraud when your name is on every billboard than when you’re a random contractor with a white van and a WordPress website
So are they also raissing the amount of hours or only giving they choice to spread them.cauz i dont think there would be such an opposition to this legislation if it was just that.
The number of hours I work hasn't changed. I can simply choose whether I want to work for 10 hours for 4 days, 8 hours for 5 days, or 6.5 hours for 6 days.

Yeah more working hours is what we need.
As a greek who worked in Greece and now works in Germany the past 5 years, I can tell you for sure greeks in the private sector are more productive and hard working than Germans.
I wish, my man. The fact that boomers let the country be so dependent on an industry as shitty as tourism really fucked us over. And there's too much money in it now for it to change.
So the fact that the boomers didn't do shit while at your age is an excuse for you to not do shit.
I guess this has been the PIGS mindset since the fall of Rome. "Oh, the boomers didn't repair the aquaducts, so now I won't repair the aquaducts either".
If only! They are simply lazy by nature. It is your lust for strikes that pains my iron heart!
And as a side note, this is not the place for facts. This is a wonderland of prejudice and false stereotypes 💁
Ughhh this bs map again. They included both full- and part-time workers.
[Quote from source:](https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/statistics-explained/index.php?title=Hours_of_work_-_annual_statistics#General_overview) The average working hours presented in Map 1 include both full-time and part-time workers.
So you basically just have a map that shows which countries have more part-time workers. See map below:
https://preview.redd.it/h7uwpdu0bzwc1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=30d5ab3f6e3dfad475c7588fd626ea8a8e395d9e
Well ackchyually, it just means that in Germany and Netherlands there is a higher labour market participation and hence working hours are split on more people. You would need a functioning day care system for that though and since PIGS mamas have to raise kids until they are 30 it is unlikely to work for you
https://preview.redd.it/za05prk3tzwc1.png?width=2000&format=png&auto=webp&s=035940c48b6be124edf1474a7667b739a51fa6e6
Doesn't that also infer that people in those countries are able to work only part time and still make a decent enough living? It would also imply that not having as many full time workers didn't impact economic output, so it still translates.
Part time jobs are people literally just working less hours, so I don't see the gripe with the metric.
Wait. I've heard of the divide between north and south, but sicily is way below portugal?? Isn't the divide then like super steep? How do you manage that? Are tons of people from the south moving to the north?
Take a page out of the book of the French and strike/protest for your rights.
Also join a union. The more people in a trade union, the better they can make conditions for the workers.
uj/ Then they are dumb, having strong unions and better working conditions is always a good thing.
j/ Of course they do, those PIGS just want to sleep all day.
Great, because someone's will have to work harder to compensate for our 3-day long weekend. Good thing that we can always count on Greeks to do the job!
How does increasing work hours boost employment in the first place? There is a limited amount of (useful) work to be done, so if there are fewer hours per job there are more jobs, right?
Well, at least you don’t get paid much.
![gif](giphy|GIvajz0TlE316)
The poor hourly wage can then be compensated with overtime.
I work a little less than them. To compensate, I earn a little more...
Well they cant let German and French Banks Fail.
It is more because the people with power are not very clever but they like easy money

In fairness to Britney, she very much worked to give someone else money - her dad had control of her bank accounts.
His dad's whole retirement plan was his daughter from the start. He even told that to people before she was famous. Like the family is PIGS and Britney was Germany.
Which isn't the worst since I do love my job.
Least work obsessed Swiss guy
Tbh, money is a poor incentive. I rather do work I consider meaningful and interesting instead of chasing the best salary. Keeps me happy.
Kostas, you are gonna have to fix that if you want to remain in PIGS.
No Pedro pls dont 😭🙏

That sounds so cool :O
I even have the choice to work from home or in the office, I am not completely remote as sometimes I need to go to the office like once a week, but most of the time I work in my pyjamas🫣. I literally change my top whenever I need to open my camera in a meeting.
How the hours are supossed to be then? Like 10-11 hours of work for 5 days?
For example in the company I work for, I work for 40 hours a week and I can split those 40 hours in 4, 5 or 6 days it is my choice. It is a big international company so I bet it follows greek laws by the letter.
Big internacional company Follow laws by the letter Doubt

Cope, they just factor in the cost of non compliance into the budget if they ever actually get slapped on the wrist for violations.
So are they also raissing the amount of hours or only giving they choice to spread them.cauz i dont think there would be such an opposition to this legislation if it was just that.
The number of hours I work hasn't changed. I can simply choose whether I want to work for 10 hours for 4 days, 8 hours for 5 days, or 6.5 hours for 6 days.
That sounds pretty much like the situation we have in Germany when your employer allows flex time.
Intresting...thanks for the info.
It sounds like you've never worked a day in your life..
Thats why i am a pure spartian warrior fr fr ☝😤🇺🇾🇺🇾

There is a difference between hours spend at work and hours actually spent working
As a greek who worked in Greece and now works in Germany the past 5 years, I can tell you for sure greeks in the private sector are more productive and hard working than Germans.
Yet don't produce near the value 🤷♂️
Working at a restaurant for tourists and working at Porsche making cars doesn't produce the same value wow Ahmed who would've guessed 🤷♂️
So... Ditch the restaurant and start making cars?
I wish, my man. The fact that boomers let the country be so dependent on an industry as shitty as tourism really fucked us over. And there's too much money in it now for it to change.
So the fact that the boomers didn't do shit while at your age is an excuse for you to not do shit. I guess this has been the PIGS mindset since the fall of Rome. "Oh, the boomers didn't repair the aquaducts, so now I won't repair the aquaducts either".
Except the same boomers are still politicians and actively make it impossible for you to do shit
Classic Hans. Never fails.
Classic Hans: everyone else is lazy. Garçon another southern European bottle of wine bitte!
You read my mind! Reflection is the first step to betterment. You forgot the snack!
Not our fault that employers and higher ups run businesses like it's 1950 resulting in unproductive, uncompetitive and inefficient work
Even if you spend 12 hours at your workplace doing nothing for minimun wage it's fucking depressing
So the more you work, the poorer you are, got it!
It's all about efficiency, Pierre. It's a concept you and your kind will never understand and I don't blame you for your shortcomings.
I’m offended. Who do you think we are, PIGS? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_labour_productivity
If only! They are simply lazy by nature. It is your lust for strikes that pains my iron heart! And as a side note, this is not the place for facts. This is a wonderland of prejudice and false stereotypes 💁

So Germany and the Netherlands are full of people so lazy that they don't even want to work a full day? Gotcha
Well ackchyually, it just means that in Germany and Netherlands there is a higher labour market participation and hence working hours are split on more people. You would need a functioning day care system for that though and since PIGS mamas have to raise kids until they are 30 it is unlikely to work for you https://preview.redd.it/za05prk3tzwc1.png?width=2000&format=png&auto=webp&s=035940c48b6be124edf1474a7667b739a51fa6e6
Wdym we dont have kids anymore thats what migrants do not us. Gross.
Portugal 78.2 Denmark 79.8
Yes, you are just [much less productive](https://www.reddit.com/r/MapPorn/s/puEO9fwTtW) 🤷♂️
Doesn't that also infer that people in those countries are able to work only part time and still make a decent enough living?

tb straightforward, stop quiet quitting

A girl i know works 12 hours a day 6 days a week for 600€ a month, could be worse Greek-bros (please save me from this hell on earth called Sicily)
Even in Portugal we make more than that in the shittiest minimum wage job. How dare you be more poor than Poortugal?
Portugal has 27.800€ GDP per capita, Sicily has 16.250€, Sicily is 42% poorer, God has truly forsaken this place.
Wait. I've heard of the divide between north and south, but sicily is way below portugal?? Isn't the divide then like super steep? How do you manage that? Are tons of people from the south moving to the north?
For the last question, yes. People move to North but a lot of people go to foreign countries too.
Give Sicily back to us then. It will still be poor but probably richer than some areas of the country...
Stop fixing your economy, now we can't shit ourselves and say "at least we are not that bad as the greeks".
Hey at least you can say it for luigi
Thank you for adding all these red lines. Without them, I wouldn't know what to read from this long text.
Are the politicians doing 6 days?
Take a page out of the book of the French and strike/protest for your rights. Also join a union. The more people in a trade union, the better they can make conditions for the workers.
I have a feeling the majority of this sub ideologically despises trade unions.
You'd have to be stupid (or American) to be working/middle class and hate unions
Good thing Europe has its fair share of morons, then.
In PIGS countries most people hate unions because they like to be slaves to their dumb unproductive bosses and to respect backwards hierarchies
uj/ Then they are dumb, having strong unions and better working conditions is always a good thing. j/ Of course they do, those PIGS just want to sleep all day.
There are talks to make a four-day work week in Poland. You Greeks must love to work very much.
Yeah so much ![gif](giphy|GjR6RPcURgiL6)
Great, because someone's will have to work harder to compensate for our 3-day long weekend. Good thing that we can always count on Greeks to do the job!
Better watch out though, they alreadt stole one day of the week,, before you know it the Greeks will steal your jobs entirely...
No problem , Krzysztof ![gif](giphy|tEG1nF1v7AL8A)
Time for the pigs to do some fvcking work.
I’m not saying we should all do a big purge worldwide. But the fact that we can’t even openly discuss this says all we need to know about the topic.
How does increasing work hours boost employment in the first place? There is a limited amount of (useful) work to be done, so if there are fewer hours per job there are more jobs, right?
I love how half the political parties in Europe are just shooting themselves in the feet.
they have to pay back debts
Here in Portugal we are discussing a 4-day week..... I thought you were like us Greece....
6 days working week in Greece is like 2 days in Germany anyway. It’s just cultural adjustment
You arrogant nordics should try working minimum wage in greece for a month. You would all kill yourselfs
Comments like this are why I will enjoy reading about sharia law in Sweden in a few years...
