1-2 weeks every 12-18 months is seen as a lot? No one tell them about europe 😶
I guess everyone is doing macro-retirement every year in EU.
Isn't that like a short holiday?
In my home country a legal minimum is 4 weeks a year, so 1-2 weeks is half or a quarter of a holiday if you take it at once :3
Or if you split it into 2 parts you get 2 weeks off every 6 months instead of 12-18
In my US state state employees get:
Private employers have NO legal requirement to offer any time off.
The disconnect between public and private benefits requirements are ridiculous.
I think we have 15 holidays we get a day off for, a month of paid vacation time from the start, aaaand infinite sick leave :3.. and maternity and paternity leave, plus unpaid time off if you want that for some reason :p
Ultra short holiday. I get seven weeks paid, usually take four off in a row nowadays and spread the rest around Christmas or whenever I feel I need to rest up from work.
You guys get vacations? Next you'll tell me you get holidays off too or something...🫠
Well it's either holidays off or double pay :3
No one tell them about the majority of countries.
Real :3
12-18 months??? I read it as weeks and was still considering it normal vacation.
