Too bad I don’t get more vacation
I’ve only been at my job for 2 years so I only have 2 weeks vacation. That’s definitely different for me because on my last job I had 3 weeks. That extra week doesn’t seem like it would make a big difference but it does. I have to take 5 days together for my first week. Then I can break up the second week and take the days how I like.
Those days go by quick. You might get a couple of 3 day weekends and maybe one 4-day weekend if you’re lucky. But that’s about it. It’s not really enough time for a vacation especially since I don’t live near the beach. No Myrtle Beach, no Outer Banks, or even Wildwood would be nice. But with so little time off, it’s probably not even worth it to go. By the time I would get to my destination, it would be time to turn around and come back.
Maybe when I look for my next job, I should negotiate vacation time as well as my salary.
