[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People could say that about us. My husband works for a Swedish company and gets 25 vacation days, 10 sick days, and 14 holidays. Additonally 80% of his company is off in August so the whole month is very quiet for him. I work in sales remotely and my calendar is my own to book and my company doesn't care as long as I'm bringing in enough revenue. We travel a lot but I rarely actually take days off, I just juggle things around or keep up on the go.[/quote] I'm a fed who gets 26 vacation days, 13 sick days and 11 holidays. I know a lot of private sector people who are on the same level of experience (masters degrees and 15+ years) that get 4-6 weeks of annual leave. I frankly think taking all of August off is insane. I HATE August. It's hot and gross to travel most places. I also don't want to be crowded. I'll take a few weeks off in October or April instead. [/quote]
