I'm highly sceptical of this meme online that office workers in Scandinavia, Germany etc quickly get their work done and focus on productivity and leave as early as they can each day instead of waiting till 1730 or whatever. I know better now that this doesn't actually exist anymore these days.
- atomwaffel 7y agoNope, working in Norway, I can confirm that the office gets very empty very quickly after 16:00, and more than once have I been reminded not to stay all day when I was still at my desk around 17:00.
- ChuckNorris89 7y agoOk, but everywhere in Europe people start leaving after 16 the question was whether the working day is 6 hours or 8 in Norway?
- atomwaffel 7y agoYes, but around three out of four people will have left by 16:30, which is definitely not common in all European countries. I’d say an average working day is 7 hours plus a 30-minute lunch break, usually taken before noon.
- ChuckNorris89 7y agoSounds good. Do all tech companies have a 7 hour workday?
