Its amazing to me how Christian the laws are in Germany still
Having a collective day for rest? I find it very worker friendly. I find it fascinating we are able to agree we rest on the same day and we do not bother each other with noise.
*unless you're working for public infrastructure, service industry, cultural industry, energy production, some parts of transportation or some parts of manufacturing where you can't shut down a plant for a single day.
There are so many exceptions to that law I'm really wondering how much difference it would really make it supermarkets and regular shift works would also continue on the weekends - just with the standard 5 days workweek still applying and having to pay a bit bonus for working on Sundays, the same way the other jobs are also getting paid more for Sunday work
Although I would vote for 3 days off work and 2 days with illegal mowing.
We don't agree. My people rest on Saturday.
This law means I can't ever fucking do construction on my house over the weekend. It's a problem.
