I like the graph about working hours, and it's good to see it levels out after a peak around 2000. It would be worth doing a similar graph back for more years, to catch the pre-forty hour working week comparison, and simultaneously compare the same period in unemployment statistics. However, as for me, I have never been able to keep up the facade of telling it like the lecturers want me to for long enough to get even an undergraduate degree; but am academic enough all the same.
