If in US, that'd be once in a lifetime - e.g. for your honey (half) moon.

Here in the Netherlands most people take 3 weeks in the summer. Then a week in fall, one around Christmas and then perhaps you just buy some extra days (meaning it’s unpaid time off) for a skiing trip in February.

And then we have Easter, Pentecost, ascension day, Christmas, New Year’s Day. All public days off.

Personally for a long time my contract was 36 hours, get you 1 more day off every 2 weeks.

That American system sounds so depressing, but I guess you get used to anything.
