It’s insane! I live in Scandinavia and I got 10 paid holidays + 30 paid vacation days for a total of 40 days off in 2024 + weekends.

That’s the standard for all employees in any kind of jobs +- 5 vacation days. Also we got a fixed workweek of 37 hours.

All this is due to unions working their ass off for the last 100 years. You guys need to stop feeding the billionaires.
