In many parts of Europe, it’s common for workers to take off weeks at a time, especially during the summer. Envious Americans say it’s time for the U.S. to follow suit.

Some 66% of U.S. workers say companies should adopt extended vacation policies, like a month off in August, in their workplaces, according to a Morning Consult survey of 1,047 U.S. adults.

      Lol, business literally won’t fail if someone being gone. And anyway, you could literally phone in or do a teams meeting for that one super critical meeting if you took a month off.

      If the business does fail from employees being gone, the business has solvable problems in succession planning and organization.
