Wow, French citizens may have to stop taking a month vacation from work every summer.

Trump has successfully put the fear of Russia into the hearts of Western European policiticans.  They lie all the time, so the proof will be in the pudding.  But their tail ends are on the line.

You can't even make a coherent argument; you just barf out meaningless stupid cliches like "the proof is in the pudding."

 

What is good about "putting fear" in the hearts of our friends and allies?

Europe has already given more money to Ukraine than the US has.   Trump lies and says the opposite.    And he cuts off their intelligence.   And calls their leader a dictator.   And blames their leader for Russias invasion.    And calls the previous president stupid for funding a democracy to fend off Russian aggression.    And announced Ukraine will never get into NATO.    And won't say a single negative thing about war criminal Putin. And removed cybersecurity targeting Russia.   And dismissed the team tasked with enforcing Russian sanctions,   

Boilerman calls that "negotiating"

 

Boilerman used to make fun of cut-n-run liberals during the Iraq war.    Isn't that funny?

But, but, but, Trump said that he aligns neither with Russia nor with Ukraine.

 

You don't think he fibbed, do you? 

 My employer only gives me four weeks of paid vacation a year. 😭 BTW they are not French.

I have 4 weeks paid vacation, 1 personal day, and 2 weeks sick pay, it's amazing how many Friday afternoon "Dr's" appointments I have in the summer.

 

My wife gets 5 weeks of PTO. She can use it however she wants to. I like that better than sick pay, although sick pay does accrue.

 

Neither company is French or European, both very American.

That is very similar to my package.

 

4 weeks of vacation or leave

1 self-care day

2 weeks of sick pay

All major and most minor holidays are paid including two paid days off at Thanksgiving and Christmas.

Boiler thinks that working 7/365 is the American dream.
