Two weeks?? Longest vacation I've been on in the past 20+ years was eight days, with the eighth day being unintentional due to an issue with the airlines.

Exactly. You get to spend vacation days exploring your own house instead of the world.

No good seeing too much of the world. Lot of dangerous ideas out there. Best to keep your head down.

Due to a serious illness, I've used up all my paid sick days. My bosses told me, "we want you to get better, so you can take as many unpaid sick days as you want." Thanks a whole fucking lot.

You have our permission to wither broke and helpless. Don't worry about repaying us. We'll send you to collections

Mine's 22 days. And that wasn't all my vacation for the year either, only most of it.
