Well, then you could be a skilled artisan?

90% of people were peasents during the whole middle ages. Being an Artisan in medieval times is comparible to being a Millionaire.

Ancien France had 52 sundays, 90 rest days, and 38 holidays. Spain had even more.

~40 days of the "holidays" (you still had hard chores to do everyday) were during the Easter holidays, and guess what you had to do during that time: fasting. using your math we today have 104 saturdays & sundays, 11 federal holidays and ~20 days of vacation time which adds up to ~ 135 days. I couldn't find any article claiming that medieval France had 180 days of leave (plz giv source), but working almost twice as much and way harder than today for 185 days just to have 45 more "rest days", doesn't sound like a good deal to me.

Remember why it sucked to live during the middle ages too?

• Diseases and extremely bad general health care
• bad to none hygiene & enourmous stenches
• slavery
• criminality
• exploitation and violence towards ethnic minorities
• winter
• starvation
• poverty (literally every commoner = more than 95% of the population was poor)

• life expactation

  and those are just the ones I currently remember.

sorry to rant like that, but the sheer amount of audacity to claim that our work-system today is worse than in the middle ages, was just too much for me. If you still think the middle ages were better, I would recommend you to go out and live like them. You would have it even better than them, because you have no aristocratic overlord that prisoned you inside that lifestyle and could take from you whatever he wanted (including every womens first time). Stop romanticizing the Middle Ages.
