I work for myself when I'm not teaching, so... not a lot. :)

Maybe two weeks a year plus holidays. Feels like I pretty much work year round. I should change that.

See, this is why I rent. That and the price of houses these days.

I actually don't know how many vacation days I get in a year. That's another great question to ask my bosses, along with "When is the union happening" and "wait, you can fire me for saying that?"

5 weeks, major holidays and a couple of floating holidays. Do you have an off season, so to speak? How many days do you have, or allow yourself?

I'm about to take a paid month off to Italy, which feels criminal if I'm honest. I've never taken so long, but times being what they are, I will now and won't feel guilty for it.

Sadly only 10 days.

We appreciate you taking one for the team.

I’ll be joining Brian watching Severance, that’ll be the next on my binge list now that I’ve finished Sandman 👍🏼

I get over 8 hours of paid time off added to my total PTO bank every two weeks. I currently have 250 PTO hours to use if I wish.

I am a US-based employee for a British-based company and technically can take an unlimited amount of vacation. I'm not sure if this is because the Brits have a different attitude toward holiday time or if there's some weird US/UK legal shenanigans that they just want to avoid and so throw their hands up and say, "Whatever you want!" As it works out, I usually take 4 or 5 weeks per year, plus holidays. My British colleagues find this hilarious.

Federal employee here so buckle up for what should have been a simple answer: for the first 3 years, I earned 4 hours for every two weeks worked. Then it went to 6 hours a fortnight. At 15 years (when you're halfway done) you get 8 hours.

No set limit but I try to limit it to 3 weeks because of the social pressures and stigma of taking too much time off. Been there, done that....

Side note: Does your awesome rare subscription deal apply to renewals? I simply can't get enough of yours and Niko's work!! 😏
