Thank you for the explanation. But isn't the phrasing in the meme totally soul-crushing?
(uttered by some company suit)
seems to be the implication.
In Europe, even part-time workers' time off is counted in "days off." Even if the end result were the same, I just think it sounds a lot nicer for the employee. "Hey boss, I won't be coming in for the next two weeks. Nah, make that three."
