    German here, a 32h workwerk is exactly what I want. Though I agree it should be made more explicit so that everyone is on the same page.

      I’m not a German but living in Germany. I wish I could work 6h a day 5 days a week, but 4 days 8h would also be fine. Sadly here at least my work is mandatory 8,5h a day 5 days a week due to a mandatory unpaid half an hour break. I hate the mandatory unpaid break thing so much…
