Three shifts means that a given worker works for 8 hours. It says nothing about how many days a week they work, or total hours worked in a week. Not sure how

  > 4x a week on the 6pm to 2am shift And who takes a massive quality-of-life hit for not being able to eat dinner with their family 4X per week, as well as a physical health hit for having to switch their sleep cycle so often. Per my other comment I was thinking that maybe the government had some controls over doing things like night shifts for non-essential work, but wasn't sure, and welcome insights from people who understand German labor laws about why Tesla's operation is OK but 24-hour stores are mostly nonexistent even though they would theoretically also operate by the same type of shift schedules. In the US I am surrounded by 24-hour supermarkets and that's because the US government doesn't give a crap about the existence of night shifts for non-essential things, and I thought initially that the lack of 24-hour supermarkets in Germany was due to explicit regulation against that practice, but I may be mistaken.
