Exaaaactly. I get 2 weeks vacation/PTO/sick days all year. That’s 10 days. I need to reserve at least 5 of those for potential sick days (either for me or to take care of the family or whatever), go to doctor appointments, take car in to mechanic, stay home for air conditioner to be worked on or whatever. That kind of stuff. Then I use at least 2 or 3 over the year for holidays like thanksgiving, Easter, or Christmas so I can take care of the parents and family members that are in town.
So that leaves me with about 2-3 days all year for an actual vacation… If I go anywhere overseas I’m using pretty much 2 full days for travel there (travel there, travel back). So if I try to max it out I can realistically go on a legitimate vacation overseas for maaaaybe 1 or 2 days. Like a weekend trip to Italy or something. Nice 👍. it sucks so much. I am so jealous of people that go to like London for 2 weeks or a week long cruise or something. Only once in my life have I gone anywhere for a week or longer on vacation during my work career. The only way I could do it was to go on unpaid leave during that time.
