You're working: how many days do you get off per year?

Not only do Americans get less vacation days. More often then not they don't take them... often times you get paid BIG money if you don't.

There is a reason America is considered one of the hardest working countries in the world.

Not sure where Australia is but i'm sure you'd find this interesting.

Italy 42 days
France 37 days
Germany 35 days
Brazil 34 days
United Kingdom 28 days
Canada 26 days
Korea 25 days
Japan 25 days
U.S. 13 days

My worst has been zero days a year... and my best has been 2 weeks with additional mandatory vacations of a week or two in the summer called "Summer Shutdown." and another break the week of "Christmas"  So 20.

 

 

Those numbers seem a bit different from those on this site:

First I thought it was including public holidays, but that doesn't seem the case either.
