Work week doesn't mean much. 35hrs in France, 37.5 in UK, 40 in USA. I don't think I've put in less than 45-50 here or in the UK, it's all down to the industry. 10 days holiday in the USA is a joke though. I visit family in Scotland, takes up a minimum of 7 days vacation, leaving me with almost nothing. Americans have limited opportunity to travel and see the world, and many don't see why they need to.
- That's is such a generalized statement about Americans that I'm actually getting angry.monospaced
- 10 days vacation + 5 national holidays in USA... OR... 19 days vacation + 9 national holidays in UK...5tim
- Ok, apologies for the generalization, stressing 'Midwest' here. I've met fucking LOADS of people here who think that way.5tim
- just like that. "America has everything! Why would you want to leave?"5tim
- British are the same.5tim
- I suppose it's too late to take out the last part after the comma? :)5tim
- 10 days!?!?!?!? I get 21! I don't know where you get your numbers, but they're wrong, or you're talking to McDonald's employees.monospaced
