Some people like to go backpacking on a "budget" to expensive destinations then sleep at the bus station or on the train, scrimp on food live on bread & water and instant food and live like beggar once they get there I hate to go for that kind of lousy vacation, when I go on vacation with my buddies, we all like to live well and eat well and drink hard hence usually we end up going to places where the currency exchange rate is greatly in our favor and spending power is a big advantage and we live like kings .. well at a least for a few days.

I get about four weeks from my employer, but never take off more than a week at a time. I work on a small team, so anything more than a week is generally quit taxing on my co-workers. Now, if I were working for the government, I would get even more time off, Smilie but I feel grateful for what I have now, I have had much less in the past.

I usually take 2 to 3 weeks off a year but usually the days off are spread out over the year

Vacation Announcements

I thought this would be a useful thread to announce vacation periods, so us regulars will be known to be on/off. If another admin thinks this is stupid, go ahead and un-pin it. (1 Reply)
