Shockingly, your brain and productivity improve when you get regular downtime.

His american colleagues sometimes poke fun at my cousins branch for only working 35 hours a week, taking long vacations and having lots of state mandated holidays throughout the year. When they hire someone new they sometimes comment on how lazy the german colleagues are...

Then they point them towards the numbers and the fact that the german branch is constantly setting the productivity records. They've been outperforming the americans by more than 10% for years.
