I lived in the UK and now live in the US, and I have more time off now than ever before. I work in tech in the Bay Area, so I know I'm living in a bit of a dream world, but it's not all doom and gloom to move from Europe to America.
For sure it's not, but let's reckon that you're in a privileged situation. I think we are talking average Joe here, and I think that Euro-Joe beats US-Joe hands down in the paid leave department.
