Remember back in the middle ages, when everyone was sporting an axe and knew where the boss's house was?
They also had more days off back then, more time to sharpen that axe.
More holidays, but when you're a subsistence farmer, those aren't really days off, just days you don't have to work for the rent.
A lot less workers too to be fair (the plague more than did its work...), so it was a workers market
And worked a lot less than 40 hours a week

My grandma used to tell me stories of how long it would take to forage for food before refridgerators
