"About 25 percent of American workers in the private sector do not get
any paid vacation time, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reports. Another
33 percent will take only a seven-day vacation, including a weekend."

How does that work? They don't take the other weekend? Taking a
vacation for a week means five days of not working and four days
of weekend for a nine day total.


At least here, that would be called a 7-day vacation (Monday - Sunday),
the first weekend would be part of the last working week,


I hope that kind of thinking doesn't prevent them from going on
holiday on the first weekend.


9 days in a row? What is America coming to.

I propose disallowing them to take all 5 days in succession. That
would improve productivity.
