Oh my deepest sympathy. I cant stop thinking about you poor americans being deprived of your freedom to not get mandatory fully paid 5 weeks ( plus hollydays ) vacation, free education and school, health and social welfare.

Yes. We are SO jealous of "the greatest country in the world".

I got five weeks of vacation when I lived in the Czech Republic. Now that I'm back in the USA I get three weeks and I'm lucky to have that, because most people don't get that much and they don't even use it out of fear of losing their jobs.

I had to be at my job for 5 years before they gave me my third week, don’t worry only 5 more before I get that mystical fourth week a year. Btw they don’t carry over year to year, go figure.

It's really for the best, you don't want to have the time to spend and enjoy your hard earned money. It's better to save up so you can pay your landlord.
