Don't take vacations. What's the point?

If you're not enjoying your work, you're in the wrong job

It's not 2005 anymore.

We work the jobs we can find instead of the ones we want.

Whether you're passionate about it or not, you're still working and work will be stressful. Everyone deserves time off and to enjoy life in many aspects. US already has shitty work ethic, don't endorse that crap.

America is infamous for being one of the most, if not THE most, overworked country that takes little vacation. People need balanced lives. We're human beings, not machines.

Deadlines and setbacks still exist.

Having the job you want doesn't mean the job is perfect.

Because you can't live in all the vacation spots at once.

Or are you just satisfied existing in a single place for large stretches of your life?

How depressing.

You're one of those guys who thinks it's possible to just up and "take a year off to travel around Europe" despite having tens of thousands of dollars in student loan debt and no money in the bank and wants to start a leg behind because of the wasted year after school.

In fact it's probably farthest from a hippy activity because they are generally poor and travel is expensive.

I'm so sorry you don't have any friends or family you want to spend extended quality time with.

I've only taken a week this year but I plan on (and have to) take four weeks next year. I've already maxed out my vacation bank with the max amount to roll over to next year.

Now I just need to decide where to go!

Pro tip: being the guy who doesn't use vacation days doesn't endear you to management. It doesn't set you apart from other employees. No one cares

Do people still not realize that the topic title and the first post are direct Trump quotes from his book?

It's been in the news since his announcement of taking a 17 day vacation this month.

The best "vacation" is the one that involves doing mostly nothing for a couple days, and just loafing about the house.
I'm not really taking a vacation at all - my pants are.

This is how I've always felt. But I've always loved just relaxing. I've never been one of those people that's always had to be running around doing something. I do enough running around like an idiot at work.

Stay-cations are the best. I always say "as long as I'm not at work, it's a good vacation"
