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.

    Or, if you are a rail worker, more than one day off a month. Not, one day plus weekends, mind you, one day period.

      That’s just criminal. They need to hire more. The railroads have also been removing rail from primary corridor despite increasing freight traffic. Super dumb. The Industry will implode.
