    >Business investment grew 3.5% in 2025, the fastest pace since 2022, and annual productivity measured by output per worker using tax data rose 2% at the end of last year, over three times the 2010-2024 average.

    Looks like we are finally moving past the low productivity phase.

  2. Please tell me its epicly long summer holidays, working reasonable hours and shrugging alot while drinking the ol van rouge

  3. If you reduce working hours but manage to maintain output, that is the definition of improving productivity.

    Its amazing how much time people waste at work, they can achieve the same result in less time, get paid the same and have more time to enjoy.
