we really do. vacations and days off in this country suck. Europe has it way better than us.
More evidence we're now a shit hole country.

Is there a reason why these same things aren't possible during the 3 weeks of early voting?
If we don't have enough holidays, then why do we collectively ignore at least a quarter of them? Seriously, who gets presidents day, columbus day, or veterans day off other than bankers and government employees? If you want to cancel one of those, or perhaps move Presidents Day to match Election Day, i"m down with that.
Election Day doesn’t need to be a holiday. But it shouldn’t be on a Tuesday when it’s cold in most places.
It should be a weekend in the Spring.
The factories at my company run all weekend. It should be a holiday
there's a stigma about taking time off in this country. like you don't work hard enough. what's the harm in more days off? also, time off is not guaranteed -- it's strictly a benefit offered by companies. but often if you have enough PTO and would want to take off 2+ weeks you'd be viewed as lazy or checked-out.

my company has taken it up a notch by telling people you have UNLIMITED PTO, then making everyone feel bad for taking any days off
We decided as an executive team to take the Unlimited PTO route as well and utilization has steadily crept up.
Fucking millennials

You have weak management, then. Had it at a previous company and it was contingent on manager approval of requested days off. Probably weak because you are on the "executive team."
Yes, the last thing we need in this country is more forced days off from work. Everyone with their excessive vacation time especially in comparison to other peer countries, just disgusting if you ask me. More work and longer hours!
