No trolling: One day off a month is 12 days per year. Most people in the United States get 10 days or less annual leave.

Most people in the US only work 5 days a week and get ~8 days per month off that are not part of annual leave.

The "one day off a month" means literally, one day of not working per month, not one day of vacation time per month.

After one year of service, the median is in 10-14 day range for vacation; the majority get 10 days or more, and only 39% get less. And this gets better with longer service.

The fuck are you on about? In the US 2 days off per week is standard + additional vacation days.
And weekends.
