    In my opinion, at a healthy workplace, someone taking time off shouldn’t be noticed

      In a “healthy” capitalist environment, they take note of who can leave without any bumps in the road and lay them off

      I used to have this boss who would get mad if anyone asked for 2 weeks off. She would say, “if you think the business can survive without you for that long, why do we pay you? Don’t bother coming back then”

        If i work 80 hour weeks for 50 weeks and 2 weeks of 0 hours… I still worked around 2x the amount i was supposed to. Firing that person for aomeone who works 40 hour weeks and never takes a vacation maybe looks better to management but is significantly less “commitment” or whatever
