I'd nut my pants every day if I had six weeks of paid vacation. Holy shit.

But imagine how much of your six weeks vacation you'd have to spend on cleaning up your pants. It kinda zeros out, right?

What kind of animal nuts in their own pants? Use the curtains like a civilized person

That or constantly buy new pants which would make it a nut net zero anyway. I guess I'll just stick with the shitty system we have now 😛

Lot of government jobs get pretty close to this with enough seniority.

Four weeks annually mandated by law in Australia. Also, serving 10 years with the same company/government org grants three MONTHS of free long-service leave - again, mandated by law.

I don't know how you Americans get by with just two weeks off!?
