I mean, I've seen the same exact thing in the UK and Germany. People just don't give a fuck about their job, they come to do the minimum amount of work and fuck off. More Brits stayed for overtime, Germans preferred to leave on time. But they solved it by hiring immigrants who will work like horses. And for low/unskilled workers, in the UK they're with an agency so they can be sacked anytime, while in Germany they're hired on a 6 month contract, then swapped with others for 6 months, then the previous guys return after 6 months, it's rather insane. So much for social protection or whatever. Mercedes parts QA people and warehouse workers are on 6 days/10-12 hours for 3-6 months. Literally looking at an advert right now. Wage doesn't even matter (it's minimum), that kind of schedule is bad for quality. Also, great European work/life balance lol What I'm trying to say, it's more of a company problem.
