This is horrific. I complain at my 5 week a year allowance sometimes because I feel It’s not enough to avoid burnout at some points in the year… My productivity drops substantially after around 2 months with no break. I still output of course but if I take a two-three week summer break I come back dealing with issues that almost destroyed me before the break within hours or minutes and I can manage my team far more naturally. I think 8 weeks per year of holiday would genuinely boost my output overall.
Holy Christ I’m not the person you replied to and I am lucky if I take a total of about 11 days off throughout an entire year…
I feel permanently burnt out and would happily put a gun in my mouth just to have it be over with.
I also forgot to mention the current place I have been with is 24/7 and have been here for 17 years now. Since we’re 24/7 we only provide the bare minimum federal holidays a year which is 6. I also am technically always on call so if the stuff I support has an issue i can be called anytime any day even on vacation, which has happened the past 3, although not this year! I will say over my time of being here emergency calls are far and between these days thankfully. I almost can’t wait for the day they fire me, I am so trained to be stressed I don’t know what the other feels like anymore.
