Why do americans think taking a week off from work once a year is "microretirement" They don't even get paid holidays there
I get 26 paid days off, what about you?

>>213942964 (OP)
Isn't that just a vacation? What's with gen z and their "new" lingo?

Almost three months just being a desk jockey; not counting sick leave. Can plan nearly take it at anytime.

>>213942964 (OP)
I have a generous employer, I get 25 days a year + "compensation" which usually covers Christmas holiday (4/5 days) + public holidays (around 8 days).
Gen Zs slaves mentality goes pretty deep, no wonder they hate the world.

>>213943215
WTF. Je vais déménager en suisse toute de suite

It’s funny how foreigners glamorize our salaries but fail to take in account of never being able to take off. Also, good fucking luck even finding a job here

I get 21 paid vacation days and unlimited sick leave

>>213942964 (OP)
Americans are ultragolems who think taking time off from work is communism. None of this is surprising. Just a few months ago the orange golem was complaining about there being too many holidays.

Europe is an absolute shithole, our salaries are third world tier, our col similar to the most expensive us states and our unemployment rate triple yours.
Also 50%+ taxes without getting anything in return. The most unaffordable real estate market in europe, extremely logn work days (noone works 35 hours, our average is 45 to 50) etc etc
Anglos dont realize how lucky they are compared to yuroshits

eh i get less than that

it does go up with experience tho

>>213943292
i get 4 weeks paid vacation and holidays

>>213943292
>good fucking luck even finding a job here
i recently watched a video from a dutchie living in the us and trying to find a job, he described it as a humiliation ritual and one big theater where he has to be as happy and enthusiastic as possible while he applies for a warehouse job and how employers have hundreds of thousands of applicants responding to one opening, that's crazy

>>213943904
*hundreds or thousands

>>213942964 (OP)
I get 15 paid days off.

>>213943904
Same thing here except hundreds of people apply to be below minimum wage fruit picker and employers reject all of them to hire thirdies for even less while bitching than young people dont want to work anymore.
The competition is even worse for office jobs.

There's no such thing as a paid day off let alone a day off in my country.

>>213943530
You’re joking. It isn’t the 90s or early 2000s anymore. With the influx of Jeets and god knows what other third worlders, the competition is extremely fierce. There’s no incentive to pay Brandon or Timmie well, despite their masters in Chemical Engineering, when Sukhdeep from Uttar Pradesh will do the same job for $40,000

It’s getting so expensive here that many Americans are literally moving to Latin American cunts

>>213944101
You're wrong. There's absolutely no evidence that immigration has depressed salaries for Americans

>>213942964 (OP)
Right now theoretically 15 days but in reality 0. I think I was eligible for 24 days on my last job

>>213943589
its the same way here but that's not funny so we just pretend like we get the legal minimum so euros can banter us

>>213942964 (OP)
>They don't even get paid holidays there
No we do just less than Europe.

Typical entry level is 10 days, and there will be more as you gain more experience.

>>213944101
>when Sukhdeep from Uttar Pradesh will do the same job for $40,000
Thats a top tier salary here and our unemployment rate is twice yours, hours homes and almost twice the price of yours and we get taxed 80% more than californians while getting flooded by milions of thirdies. Eveyone here would kill to emigrate to america, canada or britain

>>213944240
now adjust for inflation. $70k in 1999 is worth ~$135k today

>>213944101
Also a lot of people cant even afford three meals per day and people even move to morocco and senegal becaus ethey cant afford shitrope anymore

>>213942964 (OP)
We get 15 days paid vacation minimum plus public holidays and sick days it adds up to about 26 days I thinj

>>213944410
This is adjusted for inflation, its 2022 dollars. You would know this if you actually read the title of hte graph

>>213942964 (OP)
365

>>213942964 (OP)
Americans can afford to take multiple giant gap years to go around the world whereas here noone except the top 1% can afford it and its also an instant ticket to unemployment whereas in thr US thats just something everyone does.

>>213944403
>Thats a top tier salary here
your median income is 42k euros
ours is 47k dollars
it's pretty much the same
>our homes are almost twice the price of yours
they seem to be about the same.
https://www.properstar.com/france/bourges/buy/house
>taxed 80% more
no you are not. though your income tax brackets are set up differently.
>flooded by millions of thirdies
so are we.

>>213942964 (OP)
I think I have 24 paid day offs + 2 weeks of sick leave when I still get paid 100% of my regular wage, though regular sick leaves still pay around 60% per month up to a year. I usually get 2 weeks off in a row and add a couple compensated sicks leaves cuz 'oh man my head feels dizzy".

>>213944626
These stats are not correct.

USA median income PPP is 48k, France is 30k

>>213944524
it's also based on household income, which is useless because it obfuscates information. there were a lot more single-income homes prior to the great recession. we are still way, way behind on wages no matter how you cut the cake, and that's before we start looking at how people were paid prior to the 1970s crashout.

>>213943530
>t. never been to a third world country

>>213944695
>PPP
I wasn't using this useless shit. Go live in europe for a year. 40k euros goes about as far as 40k dollars outside of certain goods like motor vehicles.

>>213944626
>your median income is 42k euros
Kek no https://rmc.bfmtv.com/actualites/economie/travail/le-salaire-median-des-francais-est-de-1789-euros_AV-201904240374.html
>they seem to be about the same
Theyre not, our homes are twice the price of yours while most people make around 1700 euros and cant even afford to rent
>no you are not
Our entry tax bracket is 35% and it goes until 75 to 80% percent for abolsutely nothing
>so arr we
Except we are minority white, are completely overcrowded, have no guns, no rights, no jobs, no wilderness or actual nature to hide into, no freedom whatsoever.
Just an endless post industrial wasteland riddled with neo favelas.
Americans dont realize how good they have it compared to europe and especially this shithole country
>>213944818
Ive been to every continent except antartica. Try again.

>>213944823
Your dollars will last a lot longer in theus because everything is cheaper than here, you get taxed a lot less, fuel is cheaper etc etc

>>213944771
Here is median personal income, also inflation adjusted. Are you just going to say that all stats that don't align with your nostalgia derived worldview are fake?
>>213944823
You realize that PPP actually makes USA and European salaries seem closer right? With raw salaries the difference is even higher, PPP makes the USA lower since the cost of living in USA is higher.

>>213942964 (OP)
two

>>213942964 (OP)
>>213943078
it's not a vacation retards, it means quitting their jobs and taking a break before finding a new one.

>>213942964 (OP)
ive taken 6 weeks of paid leave and can still take 2 more this year its cumulable up to 2 years

Every second Monday roughly, three weeks over Christmas, two weeks over Easter and a couple extra days before or after some public holidays.

>>213945580
>Here is median personal income, also inflation adjusted.
"Real Median Personal Income" sure sounds like they're doing a lot more than adjusting for inflation.

>>213942964 (OP)
do amerigolems really?

>>213945580
>>213949807
oh yeah and "adjusted for inflation", and yet here we have a graph where the median is in the mid 20ks. in otherwords, whatever "inflation adjustment" they're doing is refuted by the fact that $26k annually is not even enough to survive in this country in the current day and age. thus, the inflation adjustment is at the very least hugely inaccurate, if it exists at all. you expect me to take this shit seriously? lol use your fucking brain for 5 seconds.

>>213949807
>>213949994
So yes, I guess you are indeed saying anything that doesn't conform to your personal narrative is fake.

>>213942964 (OP)
40 days paid off, so 8 weeks in a year

>>213944482
sick days are a thing in Canada? damn
over here its about 1 year of being sick before they cut your salary with like 10%, after 2 years of being sick they are allowed to fire you

>>213942964 (OP)
30 days
