Not satire: https://www.fastcompany.com/91357784/what-is-a-micro-retirement-inside-the-latest-gen-z-trend

But they specify that unlike PTO, this is an unpaid time off, which can be a break inbetween jobs or a unpaid vacation.

Still fucking ridiculous to call it "micro-retirement"

Soon we will hear how gen z is having nano-retirements every 5 days of work that can include 2 days of no work and often destructive behaviour such as parties and binge watching tv.

What about those eight hours at night? I mean people hardly even think about work while they are dreaming.

I once had a dream that Steve Irwin had come in and wanted a tattoo of a budgie. Does that count?
