germany isn't actually logging fewer hours than everyone else, but german women are the ones picking part-time gigs or staying out of the workforce entirely to handle family stuff. that shift reads like a wealth signal since richer societies just give women way more options to make those calls. contrast that with poland where the labor graph still looks like a soviet relic and full-time work is just the default setting for everyone. honestly that whole poland-style pattern feels temporary and probably won't stick around once germany finishes its deindustrialization phase.
