Greetings:
We read and hear about studies
that purport to show how a growing number of people
would prefer more time off than they would more
pay and responsibility at work, since along with
the latter usually comes more time spent at work
and higher stress levels.
More pay means
means increases that are greater than the rate of
inflation (i.e., constant dollars).
Assuming
that you currently earn enough to maintain a comfortable
lifestyle, would you prefer to make more money or
have more time off?

Greetings Kirt,
In Europe where I am currently
working there are 30 days per year, and this is
excluding public holidays. Europe has been always
known in its socialiastic work mentality.
Of course that the choice between money and
days off is an individual choice, but I would say
that extra days off if possible to choose can't
be quantized by means of mental benefit one can
get from them!

I'm more than ready for more time off. I'd be glad
to just work 40 hour weeks again. I'd like to know
who among you is an engineer and only works 40 hours?
I'd love to work for your company for a few years!
Seriously, who do you work for as an engineer
with only 40 hours per week?

Here - here man. After my last airline trip
to NYC, I need lots of time off. God help us all.
