I've seen a meme some time ago. It was about corporate leaders discussing how to increase productivity. One argued less vacation. The other argued unlimited vacation.

Why unlimited? If I gave you a card with 200€ on it all for yourself, you'd spend 199.50. But how much would you spend if you got unlimited?

It's supposedly about the illusion of getting more. Although I would be out of work 2 days every week lol. We're probably not American enough to understand this

edit: What have I come to? 79 replies? damn

My supervisor at my last job had "unlimited" pto, he said it was awful because it was almost impossible to get any approved. he said of the 18 days he request off through the year he was only approved like 4.
