I Feel Judged For Not Being Career-Oriented
Our vacation days are limited
Americans on average get fewer vacation days than most other countries. We’re lucky if we get a measly 10 days. That’s it. We get 10 days to somehow recharge for the roughly 260 days we work a year. That ratio seems a bit off, but we all accept it. In fact, we wouldn’t dare try to negotiate for more vacation days, for fear of appearing uncooperative. “Everyone else is fine with 10 days—why not you?” is what we’d hear.
