I work 5 days a week and mostly just hike and camp on weekends.

Convert holiday weekends into longer weekends.

>>1070237
I don't work, pretty much just live in the woods. Most of my friends will extend weekends up to four days or so.

I feel your pain.

University plus full time work leaves me little time for more than weekenders.

I'll use my work holidays strategically, for example take a Friday when there's a bank holiday on the Monday so I can get 4 days.

Otherwise I suffice with one or two week long trips a year.

Public holidays mate.

For my country (new zealand), we get:
>4 solo days during the year (waitangi day, anzac day, queen's birthday and labour day)
>easter gives two days on either side of a weekend
>christmas/boxing day/new year's/day after new year's gives another 4 days

Just get your leave booked early and plan around them, depending on where in the week they fall you can pair them with weekends too.

>How much time do you take off for trips?
As much as possible
Do you not get at least 2 weeks off a year?
You also might think about a career change that allows you more time outdoors
Money isn't everything

I'm starting a family so money is everything. Also spending time with them on Easter and Christmas is important. I can't be selfish.

>>1070418
Maintaining your mental health isn't selfish, it is a responsible thing to do. Where I live "USA" there are lots of people who put their nose to the grind stone and never take vacations. They even get angry and self-righteous when you try to discuss what you did on your vacation. They are normally the type of people who become emotional pretty quick, get sick a lot (but don't take off work to get better and thus infect coworkers,) and are normally getting themselves further in financial debt. Don't be like them.

>>1070244
And then be surrounded by a raft of assholes and/ or Mexicans with the same idea everywhere you go. I just attach two vacation days to a weekend and call it good.

Me or the job in Chicago, hon.

That is because he's wound tighter than a squirrel on prozac and dad need to hold him down, with both hands, or he'll run off like a rabid weedeater for the tenth time during the photoshoot.

>>1070532
Normally poor people take less vacations than rich people because rich people know how to manage their time and money in order to maintain mental health. You'd know this if you were not a wagecuck. There's no defence for that anon.

Sweetie, you're completely wrong:

Also, stop making that ridiculous "mental health" argument; plenty of people enjoy working 60+ hour weeks for long periods of time, without suffering from any adverse effects.
