    Where I live (Germany) 40h is the legal maximum. Edit: actually 48h/w is the legal maximum, but 8h/d. Exceptions per day only if you can average it out to 8h over time. Edit over.

    Although many workplaces have that, there are countless employers who offer 38,5h 37,5h or 35h weeks. 35h is, for example, union standard for the metal industry union.

    So gunning for anything less than an 8:45h day would be a step back.
