    My work you get one week the first year. Two weeks for each of the following 6 years, three weeks the 7 years after that, then finally 4 weeks once you have been with the company for 15 years.

    If you don’t work for any 30 day period, you are let go and if you work for the company again I’m the future, you restart the benefits back at 1 week vacation.

    It’s actually one of the best around. I just hit 15 years and get 4 weeks now. Yay America.

    Oh I should mention they now “expect more” out of a 15 year employee so now my evaluations are almost always “barely acceptable”, despite going above and beyond always. They want us to feel like we are lucky to have the job and they could fire us at any time. It gets worse the more benefits they are paying.

      I was going to make fun of you for being American, but then I realised that’s like punching an abused puppy.

      RIP my dude, hopefully one day you guys can join the modern world.

      I get a week or I can take the check and keep working.

      Guess what I end up doing?

      I delay the end of year misery for an extra week. That’s what I do.

      My current job gives everyone 16 days a year. I love my job, the dynamic, the people, the product. But I won’t last 2 years max with only 16 days off a year.
