3 weeks is considered much in the US?
In most of Europe you get 5 weeks each year, 4 in the summer and 1 in the winter
Paid of course, I just had my first week of work after one month summer vacation here in Sweden
Oh, as to this prank, not very fun at all
He was in on it before he entered the room, you could see it
I've got 4 weeks a year, plus 5 options day, and my sick leave builds (up to 200 hours or something) based on my days/hours worked. I'll gain another vacation week next year too. Sick leave rolls over year to year, vacation is use it or it get's cashed out when the year rolls over.
Dunno about the rest of the US, my time seems normal to me. Wife has 6 weeks vacation + 5 option days, I'm always playing catch up.
dam, your office must suck cause one of the chicks looked like a boiled chicken
maybe thats why their games are so bad now, they do pranks instead of work.

Not really a prank.
Not really funny.
Not at all entertaining.
Not worth the effort.
Not even very creative.
I don't see the point at all.
way too much work
4 weeks is not normal
I get 2 weeks, 7 personal days, and 7 sick days.

Boo, removed by user before I could watch it.
Actually, that had nothing to do with it and to be honest, it's scary that you honestly believe this.^ Yeah, those PIIGS countries are suffering big time and too much vacation (which often means less productivity) is partly to blame.
Sure, that's partly to blame b/c of low productivity and high gov.'t spending. What do you attribute the PIIGS' financial situation to?Actually, that had nothing to do with it and to be honest, it's scary that you honestly believe this.
It has nothing to do with their financial situation. In fact, many European countries have long since abandoned their shorter working days to compete. The US is the reason for their financial crisis. Europe's financial sectors are heavily infused with the industrial sector...that's been their business model for ages now and why they have trouble bouncing back from market corrections. Europe also has it's own subprime crisis which is partially caused by the Euro's adoption and it's effect on interest rates. Ireland, Spain, and a host of other countries who whose economies were not built on a strong foundation to begin with reaped the benefits of low interest rates which were originally developed for the different economic models of financially secure nations such as Germany. This led to their own housing boom. Their financial institutions put themselves in a position of great vulnerability to market correction. In short rapid credit growth, low risk premiums, abundant availability of liquidity, strong leveraging, soaring asset prices and the development of real estate bubbles screwed them. They were just as arrogant as we were in thinking that they were immune to any type of correction....like us they thought the good times would keep on rolling so when our financial system collapsed it took theirs down with us. Vacation time and work ethic had absolutely NOTHING to do with any of it.Sure, that's partly to blame b/c of low productivity and high gov.'t spending. What do you attribute the PIIGS' financial situation to?
