I'd like to see him prove that germany is anywhere near as good as the USA.And yet, Germany does almost as good as the USA in every aspect. Shows how meaningles is the American anti-vacation mentality.
Uh, you haven't proven that Americans have an anti-vacation mentality, bub.

Do you know what Germany is doing now?
They are sending off their elderly to die overseas.....
Every country is at a LEGISLATED vacation mandate of ~ 5 weeks per year, +/- 1 or 2, except the USA, where there is no vacation legislation for workers, and the ridiculously low 2 weeks is a "gift". Why are Americans so freakishly different again? And why do Americans love undercutting themselves this much?
I get 3 weeks vacation (four weeks starting next year or 2014), 5 personal days, and 5 sick days. Honestly...I never use the sick time or most of the personal time.

But every American I had asked says that they don't like vacations because they don't want their employers to incure the extra expense of it. (A self defeating shoot-your-own-foot attitude?)
Are you lying or are you just hallucinating?

I am telling the truth. But you can too open threads with this question at as many political forums as you want and this will be the most common answer, by far. (In addition to real life conversations.)

Why?
REALLY?????
So which industry sector and which state/region? Or are you at some government job in the same office for the past 20+ years? Does not apply to most American workers.
I work for a bank in Charlotte. I'm going on my 11th year with them.
Most high tech companies use something known as a "Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement" that is part of the employment arrangement when an employee is hired. If he is using his former employer's proprietary information to compete with them, he is likely already in violation of a legal agreement.
No, we can't do that. That would require self accountability and responsibility. That's not fair.
No. That would require money. And money is what we increasingly don't have any more.
You can make all the excuses as to why you can't all day long. At the end of the day you'll still be a loser.
The last company I worked for, by the time I left I was earning 3 weeks vacation and 10 sick days a year. The sick days banked, and I used them to go on maternity leave.
Vacation isn't a gimme in every job, it's part of employee compensation. Some people would rather work a job that pays more upfront, some would rather have the benefits.
Yes, but such a balance is not reflected in nationwide employer statistics.
And if you were happy to "work yourself up to 3 weeks", then get informed, that most other countries START with 5 weeks. (Including 3rd world!) And how happy were you with your maternity leave limited to 10 days, when my sister had a hard time even after 20 days?
You are only looking at vacation, not all benefits. Vacation is just one part of employee compensation.

Because we're not lazy socialist sloths, like you guys, except for Democrats/union dregs.

LMAO!! You're either brain numb or very dumb. Keep it up. You think you just got an ass kicking? Wait till next time and you'll find out about a landslide. Go check and see what Lyndon Johnson did to Barry Goldwater in 1964.

Why?
Unused sick & personal time gets paid out (sick time 100%, personal I think 75%) at the end of the year. This year, I have used no sick time and two personal days. (I am also carrying over 4 vacation days I have to use in the first quarter.)
About seven days' pay will be a pretty nice check.
I'm on permanent vacation.

Okay, so does this indicate, that Americans put money far above everything, to the point that they remove all flexibility around it? Assume you wanted to go for a 5 week vacation to see something or meet people or recharge batteries or whatever. Would you be able to negotiate that as easily as to turn your time into just paper (money)?
Really? Hard to believe. Which industry sector, and which state/region of the US?
Funny, my private sector employer provides 4 weeks of vacation per year, plus 12 holidays - all without the government mandating it.

I had so much at my last job, I literally couldn't use it all. When I left, I cashed out like 2 months.
I'm on permanent vacation.
It's a state of mind.
