Okay, recently the german unions have retreated a bit in this particular struggle; But worker vacations are still outrageously long when viewed from other countries...
Doesn´t matter for me; I´m self-employed. (I sometimes hate my boss! )

Yet Germany remains one of the most productive countries in Europe. I'd suggest Germany is doing something right, and the rest of us are getting it wrong.

Correct me if I am wrong, but I believe that a study in france Proved that productivity had gone down in france in the last decade as a result of less work time.

Productivity and France are two words that cannot be juxtaposed in the same sentence. Possible the productivity index in France dropped from 0.0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000002 to 0.0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001, but the difference I assure you is imperceptible.
