BitaTruble -> RE: 225 to 70.... (8/19/2011 12:18:20 PM)

Himself is a high level exec. When he first started his job he got 4 weeks vacation his first year. 20 days. His second through fifth he received 6 weeks .. 30 days per year. Years after through 10, he got 8 weeks or 40 days a year. In 8 years he received a total of 220 days of vacation. Pretty equal to Bush and, like Bush, he often worked a lot of those days. Obama has been in office for 2.5 years or so so to me reasonable vacation days at an exec level would be somewhere around 60 - 70 days. Like Bush, Obama is on call 24/7 and I'm pretty sure that the people who need to have instant access to him for whatever reason can do so.
If people think that's too much vacation time, then the thing to do is to call your congressman and let them know. While you're on that phone call.. ask your Congressman how many vacation days he scheduled for himself during his first year. [8D]
ETA: Holy crap.. I didn't realize that Bush took 225 days during the same time frame that Obama has taken 70. Never mind about what I said about it being comparable to Himself.
