What is the longest vacation you have had since you joined the real world?

Only 9 days for me. Sad

I'd say that month in the hospital doesn't count as vacation, does it? although I technically wasn't working, was I?

Otherwise it's five work days, nine total.

I'd be willing to bet YOU don't call it vacation... don't matter what we call it. Very Happy

2 years ago I took a bunch of days off around Xmas and got really sick right when I was getting ready to go back to work. I ended up being out just over 3 weeks.

Probably 12 or 13 days. We close @ Christmas and don't reopen until after New Year's Day. This year it's only 10 days, but it can get up to 13 days I think.

Cool

11 days for the honeymoon. 6 work days of being on vacation. Then I just stayed home for 3 more days, which puts the whole thing at 14.

I take two weeks off at the end of the year every year.
As far as actually GOING somewhere, probably 9 days last year when I went to Ireland.

Summer of 1997, when I was between jobs. Memorial Day through Labor Day. If that doesn't count, honeymoon. 2 full weeks.
