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.

    I came here hoping somecritter had asked what “OOO” is. Nocritter has, so I’ve decided that it must mean “Object-Oriented Overtime.”

    (Okay, I looked it up and it seems to be “out of office” but that’s not as funny)

      Surely it means ‘Objecively Outré Outerwear’? Everyone should have a chance to wear unusual clothing in August.
