It was exaggerated for comedic effect.
Here we get 25 days (5 work weeks) each year by law. Some get more; I don’t know the average amount of days. Apparently you get 28 days if you don’t get overtime compensation.
In general 4 consecutive weeks are used during the summer months.
You also get paid more during vacation, for some reason.
All other EU countries have a minimum of 20 paid days.
Duckduckgo didn’t track anyone if I recall correctly.
I think they whitelisted (or it was a bug, can’t remember) some Microsoft trackers.
Not great, but not as bad as it looks.
Just use Firefox ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Not defending them, but I assume it’s the American bosses implementing what they think is normal.
If a company wants to keep policy in other countries it has to make it very clear to each branch, otherwise they will forget or not care about the policy.
Almost everyone has vacation in the summer (winter is cold and shit) so most office work slows down heavily during a few weeks and then picks up again during and after August…
Retail and stuff like that is obviously different.
No,! we have to make a moral lesson about it!!!
