Do You Need A Break?
Posted by: Executive Producer, Julie Fike
It's been reported this week that according to an Expedia.com survey, 35%, or an estimated 51.2 million Americans, will not use all of their vacation days this year. Stress and job security are two issues that prevent us from taking a vacation. Other things many of those asked why they don't take a break say, things are worse when they come back.
Who hasn't come back from vacation to hundreds of emails and catching up to do?
Many of those polled say all they take is a long weekend, at the most. Does this constitute a break in your mind?
The big wigs at 1-800-GOT-JUNK don't seem to think so. Employees there get 5 weeks of vacation after 2 years there and to get it they must take two consecutive weeks off.
Here's to all those who need a vacation out there. By the way, that's where Rusty is this week!
