Counterintuitive statistics that will be ignored

Working fewer hours correlates with higher productivity. Who knew the Germans were such slackers compared with the Greeks?

Working fewer hours correlates with a longer lifespan.

Put that right next to the research that shows that cubicles and open plan offices decrease productivity, and that offices with doors increase same (in the round filing cabinet). Then ask yourself why your all-knowing, omniscient corporate masters continue to make decisions that are counterproductive.
