Americans are literally slaves

Americans are literally slaves.

The freedom to enslave people, it's for the greater freedom, bruh. You wound't understand.

Where the fuck did you get this nonsense kick I get 3 weeks paid vacation a year did you make that shit yourself kek

What are paid vacation days

>everybody look at me and my flag please I need the attention

pathetic

must be why we make so much more money than everyone else

Rare, and possibly treasonous.

Different companies give different days.

The goverment doesnt control the majority of our lives like in other countries.

>haha ur country is shit! Your people don't even need laws forcing them to be good people! haha!

2 weeks paid vacation is the actual average for US jobs.

I get 20 and major holidays

Top kek.

I had over 50 days PTO last year.

I work for a small company that doesn't keep track of such things.

If my shit's done, no one cares where I am.

I'll be in Germany for about 20 days here pretty soon, all paid for. Just going to visit my sister and her US army husband.

>minimum
>slaves because they can choose their own jobs
>paid more anyway

>Greece is in a financial crisis for several years
>women blow men for sandwiches
>still get 25 days vacation

>minimum paid vacation days
That just means it's unregulated, ya moron. Firms offer paid leave (on top of holidays) as one of the ways to attract employees.

I'm shocked they get 25 days paid vacation desu
I thought they got 365 days unpaid vacation

>he believed the sandwich meme
topkek, wonder how many people booked a trip to Greece after reading that

>Paid vacation.

>greek women

i'd rather have the sandwich

They defined "minimum paid vacation days" as "government mandated vacation days"

>tfw I get four weeks paid vacation a year, and unused time pools
>tfw I'm taking two months off paid starting in July
>tfw third-worlders believe everything the Jew tells them

>government mandated vacation days count means no companies offer it

Maybe YOU'RE the slaves since your governments run your lives and decide how and when you can work.

this desu

good luck motivating yourself to go back after 2 months

kek

I didnt know that, I get 4 weeks of vacation time + 2 weeks of family time. We also get 2 weeks paid time off for christmas and 2 weeks paid time off in july for robot maintenance. That right there is more time than Brits get. Must suck having a shitty job or relying on the government to tell you how many days off you get, whos the slave you say?

>pitcairn
what the fuck are you even?

didnt even know there was something in there

Does he know her son doesn't belong to him?

It's time to go back, Bernie.

They call it holiday pay here.

Why is it an american term if paid vacation doesn't actually apply to Americans?

AND YOU CANT HAVE THOSE ONES EITHER

>needing the government to mandate our lives

they're not that bad

>Not paying people for not working is slavery

ok, nigel, calm down
lower the butter knife, noone is taking your islands

We just get paid more when we aren't on vacation (when considering we lose less via tax). Which is best because that way I'm never paying for anyone elses vacation.

I'd give her a sandwich if you know what I mean

I've never had a job where PTO isn't given at least after a year of working the job. Needing paid time off to be required by law is as pathetic as needing to retire for forty years when you turn 60. This is why we're the best and your faux-shitposting flag is doomed to be crushed by our glory.

Nobody except Muslims anyway

I get 21 days minimum and acrue more throughout the year. Most businesses just establish their own standards instead of it being imposed by the emperors.

>letting companies have the choice to give people vacation hours

>letting people have the choice to work at a place that provides vacation hours or not.

>slavery.

But wait.

>forcing companies to give their employees vacation hours.

>forcing the people of this country to subsidise vacation hours through higher costs of products so these lazy fucks who barely scrape through life can have a couple weeks off a year to get paid to sit at their house and go on drug binges.

>freedom.

i do know what you mean, mein Giga Fuhrer

I get about 20 paid vacation days per year, which my employer isn't legally obligated to give me.

FREEDOM

that's like saying that you get paid $50 an hour so the minimum wage is $50 an hour

i have 3 weeks

get a real job

what industry do you work in

did you negotiate or is it just company culture to give no fucks and simply set expectations / deliverables?

>no free market
>Government should legislate your labour

Fuck off Commie

What the fuck? Am I just too stupid to find a job like this?

I worked for a company that said, one year, they were eliminating PTO for my position and that, by the end of the year, any accumulated hours would be gone.

Can I use it here?
>No.
Can I use it here?
>No.
Can I use it here?
>No.

So after it all went away, I got another job that actually had PTO benefits again and, when I tried to use them;

>What? So, you expect me to pay you to not work? Does that make any sense to you? What kind of company do you think this is?

I need a backbone.

20% more $ than the UK, and we still get vacation days just they aren't paid. We can make even more $ if we want by taking less vacation.

>You are free to have the rights of companies and their economic imperative to override the freedom of individuals

Ftfy faggot.

Ive never worked for one but some companies schedule or bid for days off throughout the year at one specific time instead of a free for all. It helps schedule when people need to be filled in for. Maybe you missed the meeting.

Most people get 2-3 weeks worth a year, maybe more if you're a longtime employee. It's not France or UK level but it definitely exists.

If you're working a contract job or some immigrant under-the-table job then maybe you won't get PTO, but that's because those gigs last only a few months anyway.

based switzerland

They've been following nationalist principles for a while now, if they ever got inriched they'd be fucked.

That's because we aren't slaves to our government.

>Chart with no title

So now I understand why you don't get holidays as a matter of course. Your national level of incompetence is such that most of you are forced to work through 'vacation days' to make up for all the timewasting fuckups you make during the regular year if you even want to maintain a french level of productivity.

>0 days

Nigger I get 6 weeks of vacation a year and I work low-level management at fucking Walmart.

...

To all saying it's not like that here, it is exactly that. Most "citizens" of the U.S. are overworked and underpaid. It's called a dying society. Inflation and lack of resources to spread. People that would be considered lazy now mare four times as active as someone from the 1890's.

The sad truth is not only here, but elsewhere there are similar occurrences.

that's not even the worst part. our prison population is the highest in the world, and they make so many of our goods.

michael moore's latest movie is revealing.

nobody realizes this guy lives in a country of less than 100 people

You have the biggest economy measured by gdp/capita and you are bragging about just scraping into the top ten for disposable income?

Top kek.

This thread is literally cancer all because of OP.
Don't listen to fucking aussies.

no he doesn't he lives in the netherlands and posts from proxies to get attention because he's a fucking retarded faggot, he's not going to post in the thread again

Sorry we all can't be jew nations based on financial work allowing for higher income at low GDP.

I get 4 weeks paid vacation in my 15$ an hour low skill job I have while going through college.

Government minimums are bullshit.

That just means there's no federally mandated minimum, retard.

It's equivalent to comparing minimum wages and saying that americans are therefore poor.

US salary and tax is much lower, living standards much better for people with good degrees.

Lol you need a master in a field that is in extreme demand to even make 2x the min wage over here.

You have the biggest banking sector in the world too, so you can give it a break. And for what its worth, we have made it into the top 20 selling milk and holidays to asians.

...

"Biggest"

Not per capita. London and the Swiss have much more of that going on.

Or you could just join a good company and do a good job and you earn vacation days. Fucking Eurocucks.

Are benefits included in that?

this is from 2011, prob not accurate now

Sounds like you're conflating "productivity" with "time spent actually moving and doing shit". Average productivity's gone up because of technology; people can set up meetings on the fly, communicate with each other instantly at or away from work, use various machinery to do shit etc.

An engineer twiddling around on autocad can get presentable work done far, far fucking faster than if he had to draft and calculate everything by hand. With the same amount of allotted hours in the work day the guy using autocad produces more usable results than the manual drafter. He's productive, much more so. Even at a place you wouldn't think is that different in work than decades back, like working a grocery store, a guy standing there watching a bunch of self-checkout machines is more productive if they're all being used than a guy behind a register bagging groceries, even though he's just standing there letting machines do the work.

>> Lol you need a master in a field that is in extreme demand to even make 2x the min wage over here.

Good post Neederlands.

average income in Germany is 1,8k - I make 2,4.

Which would be close to nothing in the glorious United States but is considered a good paying career over here.. fml man

They are cities, not countries you retard.

>New York isn't ranked 2nd in terms of the largest financial centers in the world, behind London by 8 points out of 800...

>it wasn't number 1 in 2014

Only 3 years in, and I already get 21 days a year.

Thanks capitalism.

Underrated kek

>Americans are literally slaves.

>provides graph for data, like 3 year old
>one sentence for beginning of thread

We are slaves. Slaves get shit done.

>average income in Germany is 1,8k - I make 2,4.
Per month? For what occupation?

>R
>A
>R
>E

>government forced vacation
>literally forced to pay for your coworker's vacations

No thank you. Pay me for my own work and steal as little of my earnings as possible and I'm happy.

i saw this eagle in a zoo. literally the most retarded animal ever

The government shouldn't mandate vacation days. I've been at my company less than a year and have 10 days.

i've been at my job for 2 years and i get 28 days every year

it's just not guaranteed by the cuck government for shit jobs

No, the corporations control the majority of your lives. I'm not sure what's worse, but at least the government has an obligation to care about you. American work culture is so fucking stupid, it permeates every aspect of their lives; work is expected to come before leisure time, and that's considered the natural order. Complete garbage.

20 vacation days is the legal minimum in Germany. 95% of the employees get 28-30 days.

>calls someone else a commie
>wants to use the communist red star in a new Canadian flag

kill yourself me lad

>tfw 365 vacation days per year

>being paid for not working

wew lad

Over here the average income is 30k a year. min wage is 18k a year.

If you've done a Bsc and master in something like software engineering you're making a whooping 30-35k. While in the US they pay you 80-100k for the same.

You're pretty much very chained to the government with taxes as well. Because the first 18k you make gets taxed at 36%, second bracket is 18-55k which gets taxed at 42%, everything over 55k is 52%.

VAT is 21%. Mortgage average I guess 6% if you were smart about it. Average house in a not shitty neighborhood 250k, you must have 20% or so up front otherwise you can't get a mortgage.

This is also why a significant amoutn of people under 30 still live with their parents, you just can't move out easily, and if you do its some shitty shared room because everything is too expensive. Rentable appartment easily has a rent of 600 a month which is unpayable with most salaries.

>Paid vacation.
How did this shit even start? I didn't know my new job had paid vacation until I had already saved up for everything before negotiating the schedule with the boss.
Paid vacation raises our prices.
>Muh gubment mandate.
It's a big thing in unions, who go out of their way to oligopolize manufacturing, of the Made In The USA Markup price is paid vacation.

idk what benefits are someone pls explain

I have three weeks PTO. Can get up to eight if I stick around for another 20 years.

kek, I work FOR the US Federal government and I get 10 paid holidays plus enough earned leave for another 39 days off each year.

>minimum paid vacation days for employees with 10 years of service

I get more paid vacation than this and guess fucking what:

THE GOVERNMENT DIDN'T HAVE TO FORCE MY COMPANY TO PROVIDE IT

in USA companies provide benefits to compete with other companies to attract and retain skilled labor

If you're a worthless piece of shit with no skills who can be replaced by the next random 16 year old off the street, you're not going to get benefits

>paid
kek

>living the American dream

Yeah, you're welcome.
