Does that 2 hours come out of your work day or do you have still stay 2 hours later? I don’t even use my 1 hour lunch break because not using it let’s me get off earlier.
Yeah it’s pretty shit tbh, but also total weekly is 35h max, tons of vacations, etc etc etc. Also very dependant by workplace, depends if the boss is modern or old school, etc. Some people definitely enjoy the long mid-day break, also realistically if the bossman takes you out and orders a bunch of wine, expectations for the afternoon are gonna be low…
Also shit gets weird when you start going south, shops will close from 12:00 to 16:00, morning open at 10/11, it’s maniana maniana. Overall I would rate France not the best country to work in but it’s mostly because you then have to deal with not only French people but also French administration, and F that. Overall work conditions and benefits are good (salaries not so much). I personally GTFO of there and much enjoyed the faster pace where I live now but I’m kinda getting over it and the slower rhythm sounds more tempting now.

Doesn’t come out of your hours so yes in practice you finish later and/or start earlier.
F that. I guess it’s nice if you need to go to a doctor or something but no way as a standard thing.
