> Actually, as I understand EU rules ( and I know this based on

it's illegal for you to work more than 37.5 hours a week. That's why the
German people are calling for "flexibility".

That doesn't sound right. I can understand them not being allowed to force
you to work more than a certain amount, and I've met / worked under
management types who would read that as limiting their work-hours (as in, I
can't work a 50 hour week because I can't force my staff to work a 50 hour
week).

are ~40 a week, but that's a totaly differance discussion.

Are we defining work hours, as hours you are at the work-place, or hours
you are actively working? I mean, I spend at least an hour at work every
day doing stuff that's not strictly work-related, not including lunch.
Also, I spend a lot of time outside of work, thinking about work, and since
50% of my job is planning the other 50% of it, is that work too?
