All of the individual things people say they would give up are under a majority.

Note that this is one third. And there are people who live close enough to their workplace that it wouldn't add much burden.

The toxic culture is coming from the outside. They have no reason to trust you, because dozens of corporations institute wellness programs and talk about caring while still punishing people who take time off. Plus, some of them have just internalized the idea that they should just work through it.

One thing I have heard can help is if the boss takes time off, so since you have some authority, maybe make a point of taking your own time off and telling them when you do?

In Germany? I was under the impression that Germany had much better public transport than we have in the States.

I mean, if you live in a flat without your own parking space, I'd expect you're taking public transportation most of the time. If you don't own a car in the first place, there's no need to convert you in the first place, at least if you have no reason to need a car.
