On Eating French

Posted on October 30 at 3:43 p.m.

Hi,
I'm a french webdesigner working both in web agency and as freelance, i uselly work around 45/50 hours per week. The reality is that many of us work more thant 35 hours. We are known to work less beacause Labor unions (i don't know if it's the exaxt word) and the ones who work in administration (which are numerous in France) force the gouvernement to get more and more advantage and to work less and less ... but it's very different in private business, we work much.
Nevertheless, i do agree with this article. We are use to get around 1 or 2 hours at lunch. So i beleave that working hard is to uncompatible with having a good way of life. It's the way we work in France :)

Sorry if my english is not good. But i hope that could have explain a few.
