I actually have 32 days off here in Belgium.

20 days for everyone working full time, and 12 ADV days for anyone working 40 hour weeks instead of 36 hours.

All of them are fully paid of course.

I definitely can take off the whole of August. But I’d rather spread it out over the year.

So instead of rolling your eyes, you should be rolling your bosses off a cliff for not granting you the same courtesy.
