I recently had to end working 32 hours on 4 days. I don’t think, that people sitting in the office 35 hours on 5 days are somehow more productive. But Germany has another huge problem having whole industry building obsolete diesel cars, when world goes electric. These working hour discussions are a tip of an iceberg. The real question where to put hundred thousands of workers and engineers what aren’t needed for electric cars.
- atoav 6y agoAside from cars Germany has a thriving ecosystem of small to medium sized companies who specialised on certain things and are often world leading in their special segment. So I would not be too worried about engineers, more about people in manufacturing..
- gridlockd 6y agoThe world is not going electric, urban dwellers are. Every german car maker has an electric car shipping. They know the market better than you.

- gridlockd 6y agoAre they really? To date, both Volkswagon and BMW outsold Tesla in Europe, which might have something to do with being able to ship cars on schedule.
