It could just be me but I think this is what you would call a "vacation."

I work in educational support on a 10-month contract. I am paid for the built in holidays and I save a little and take the summer off. I think it is a good work/life balance.

Any "journal" that misuses commas like that should be ignored as an example of anything real people are saying. It's a tabloid.

I just listened to a news/information show regarding studies done on millennial and GenZ that found 4/10 of this cohort also worked a side gig in order to hedge against layoffs. Often, many of these side gigs are not glam type.. like influencers etc. Many of these jobs are like working in service -- nannys, retail, food service -- stuff that can't be replaced by AI or a remote offshored employee. So this report was on NPR today...

Vacation or busting your arse at a high paying job like truck driving for miners then quitting and living off the wages?

'Cos i know Millenials who spent their 20's doing that.
