we're one of the only countries that has no paid annual leave, no maternity leave, and no guaranteed time off (though that is slowly changing I grant you) - even countries that work more hours on average per week still have these

50% of us check work emails/messages and even work from home on weekends and on sick days, and 20%+ feel 'expected to check work emails and messages on vacation'

we take less vacation on average, and retire later. we work longer days than the rest of the Western world. a second job or having both parents work a job to keep the household afloat is not uncommon, and is rapidly becoming the norm.

Sure, we maybe don't work as many hours per week on average compared to say South Korea (although a lot of our 'off clock' work like when we do work stuff at home is not part of those numbers) but to say that American workers are lazy is just some total crock. Americans work hard, especially poor Americans.

holy poo poo goondolonces kind gentle-sir. i would rather dig a ditch than check work emails on my off time.

The miracle of becoming a salary employee is that your employer then expects you to dedicate your life to it.

nothing in your employment contract says you have to check your email on vacation, if you "feel" like you have to thats because your a puss
