Is there a country/state/etc that hasn't got a strong work culture?
And how does it show?

What is your definition of a strong work culture and what country are you from?
Do you see a your definition of a strong work culture as a good, bad or neutral thing for the society?
A good question!
I don't have a fact-based or a researched answer for you. My gut feeling thinks about workaholism, burn-outs and generally people having less leisure time.
I just came to think through a Lemmy post/comment that a lower work culture can be a thing at all. Or is it a thing existing at all, in any country.
I've understood that America is a strong work culture, and Finland as well. But are there places with a lower work culture?
Finland
Haven't thought of it. I feel neutral about it.
The only thing that concerns me is that there could be more burn-outs, more workaholism and more inflamed points of views towards the balance between work and leisure time in a stronger work culture.
Spaniards famously like their naps.
France (my source is Emily in Paris though, so take it with a grain of salt)
I mean by that logic the US would also be in the same boat (the office, workaholics)
