I’d argue the innovation of taking a month off in the summer is at least as mind blowing as AI. I’ve got clients in Sweden and their just about to peace out for the entire month of July. They were like “don’t call or email us, we don’t care what happens”. Sick as hell.

Europoor here with 32 days of paid leave per year. I also work a lot abroad so i was already spending 3 months in Spain this year alone. Also, everybody here in Austria actually gets 14 salaries per year - double paycheck in summer so everybody can have a nice holiday, double paycheck in winter for everybody to have a nice christmas.

The salary thing is kind of a gimmick though, it just means that your salary is spread over 14 months instead of 12.

Like forced savings because some people don’t know to save up themselves.

It's still nice for some people.

It's a literal scam, they hold back your money, collect interest on your money while making you wait.

The scam is paying you at the end of the month instead of the middle.
