    I have realized what the problem is with vacations:
    We no longer take off as part of a giant team that continues without us letting us just jump back in when back but for a lot of us it simply pauses our work without pausing the buildup.

    There’s not a casual getaway its a calculated loss or later tension and math quiz on whether it is worth it.

    Thats literally the wrong way to lose stress.

      Office next door started this thing in 2019. basically your entitled holidays carry over forever. And as permanent employee you can take upto 2 months of unpaid holidays on top without being fired, so basically people take 1-2 months vacations every year. One of the guy who we know hadn’t taken a holiday since 2019. He is now basically taking 9 months off work and 6.5 of those is paid at his full salary.

      Motherfucker is starting the whole thing with muay thai retreat.
