It’s worse actually for most employees… my Dad only gets 5 paid vacation days a year

[cd_mnky]

Yeah, and in the US you even have to use up your few paid vacation days if you get sick.

[acmiguens]

I only get 5 days a year... :(
10 would be awesome. 20? A dream!

[Why-D]

Might be, that the USA is the only country, without any entitlement of paid vacation days, paid bank holidays or paid maternity leave in the world.

Here in the good ole USA they want you to work until you DIE!

Brant always cries. How about him laughing in the end for once?

Mom has had ZERO paid days off while taking care of household and working 6 days a week.

Most of East Asian countries even work like insane for 365 days a year 😅😅😅 I work almost 12hours daily and that's totally normal

[emilwandel]

Misrepresentation about the unemployment approved travel. It is exactly 20 days a year and must be approved otherwise you have to stay in the city you live in. It is like prison with 20 days of holiday.

Who gives strangers their phone, just to click photos 💀

No thanks, I will aim for the language, so it's more of an adventure for me rather than leisure. Vacation is not on my priority list.
