i get 22 days off and thats only because my employer gives me 20 PTO days + 12 holidays, that could easily go back to 10 PTO days and fewer holidays at another employer. America is a shithole.

        So many people I know are on day 3 of a 7 day work week (sat-fri) right now because of the october week

        but yeah even factory workers get a couple of weeks for CNY, a few days for May day, couple of days for dragon boat and a few days for national day. school staff and service workers might have the worst holiday schedules I think.

        may day, dragon boat and national day come with make up days though, so often it’s only 1-2 actual extra holidays for each

      Its the sacrifice that some countries make to make the GDP skyrocket. Of the top countries, youd have to get to germany to be on the first country that offers reasonable PTO, as the 3 countries in front of it arent that great at it (U.S, China and Japan)
