Yeah we have a limit of 48 hours per week in the UK, averaged over 17 weeks. I'd hate to work more than 8 hour shifts O.o

Sounds like us. 38 average, 46 Max a week.

I remember looking up the amount of annual leave some countries get a year and was quite surprised. We get 4 weeks a year (not including public holidays) and after 10 years of work in a single company, you can get long service leave, which is extra holidays.
