Flexing on us with that parenthetical statement

20 working days should be very common mount of available vacation days per year (at least in EU)

Americans:

I'm on a three week break and that's like normal summer holiday for most of us in France. I'd even say on the small side because we can't really be away that much from our respective jobs. The main difference is what one can afford to do during those three weeks, for sure, but otherwise we are paid the same.

Oh I was assuming a 2 week pay period so 10 days and still not all that surprised that someone would get that. Someone working part time more than likely won't get get any vacation nor sick time at all in America.

A full paycheck for an extended period contains many paychecks.
