    No longer? Im in my early 30s and have never been able to take a vacation since I’ve been on my own/with my wife. Between bills and rising prices, and my job combining pto and sick time, i dont have time or money to do anything more than a day trip to someplace not that far away.

      Society is overall in denial about our relationship with corpo komissars

      Vast majority of People got no time or money for anything. But we can all pretend that clowns on social media and YouTube living their best lives is normal lol

      I’m in my late 30’s in the NYC area. What my wife and I consider a “vacation” is going to Philly and staying in a hotel with a pool, and just putzing around a different city for the weekend.

      The idea of taking a week+ off from work and flying somewhere is a foreign concept to me.

      There have been a couple of times that we have gone to states far away to stay with family/friends, but it’s usually for like a long weekend.
