That's pretty much standard for non-governmental jobs. I generally had 7 days a year - 3 in summer and 3 winter. - Meg Feb 19, 08:34 3
- Yeah, I don't think I've ever worked a job that gave me any time off between New Year and Memorial Day. - kelly Feb 19, 08:46
- Make that 4 in winter :) -- nm - Meg Feb 19, 08:35

        it sounds really bad, right? it's not. all you have to do is get to july 4th and I swear it's like you have the rest of the year off. - amanda Feb 19, 08:37 2
        
        Yeah but it's hard to get to that point some years. There are weeks you just sit at work wishing there was a there day weekend coming up soon. - Krusty Feb 19, 08:54 1
