Texas & Oklahoma are two of the Top 10 Hardest Working States!
Does it still count as hard work if you’re working from home with Netflix on in the background all day?
WalletHub just released its annual list of the hardest-working states in America – and both Texas and Oklahoma are in the top 10…DUH!
They look at things like work hours, employment rates, unused vacation days, how many people have more than one job, and how much we volunteer in our spare time.
The ten hardest-working states this year are:
- North Dakota
- Alaska
- Wyoming
- Texas
- Nebraska
- Oklahoma
- Colorado
- Virginia
- Maryland
- Hawaii
According to the results, the ten states with the most SLACKERS are:
- West Virginia
- New Mexico
- Rhode Island
- Michigan
- Ohio
- Connecticut
- New York
- Oregon
- Mississippi
- Arizona
Overall, Americans work harder than people in most countries though – an average of 1,779 hours a year.
(That’s higher than Germany, France, the U.K., Japan, Italy, and Canada. Mexico works the most hours at 2,137 a year.)
