I get 20 days off total per year (sick, PTO combined) but I work for a company that is owned by a Swedish company and dear sweet baby jesus do they enjoy vacations. They vacation like Congress; no less than 10 weeks off per year for everyone I talk to. Doesn't matter if it's the CEO or one of ten dudes in order fulfillment and IT. And they still want to take more time off! Which, obviously, fuck working.
The funniest part of working under a Swedish company was trying to explain our healthcare system to them when we go over our monthly expenses. They could not understand why health insurance for 8 people cost $4,200 a month.
