Haha, 4 wks of vacation? That’s only achievable in the US if you’ve been with the company for 30+ years (another un-achievable anymore in the US).
The Europeans have a better concept of vacation than most companies in the USA do. Only teachers, professors and students get vacations of decent lengths in the USA.
Meanwhile, here in the China, workers get about two weeks’ vacation (Spring Festival and National Holiday/Mid-Autumn Festival), plus a few scattered one-day holidays. Everyone gets the same days off, so you can imagine the crush in the train and bus terminals. Academics like me have it better. This winter holiday will be 8 weeks long! And it’s paid!
