May be is just me, but I can't possibly enjoy a vacation knowing I need to get back to look for a job. I much rather negotiate with my employer taking 3 to 6 months off without pay to go travel, or 3 to 6 months part time. Not an option for everyone, but if you're good and you're in a company that values you that's a very realistic option. I have a small kid and soon a mortgage, so what I will probably end up doing is negotiate part time working remotely for ~4 months so I can travel with my family.
- flukus 10y agoWhen I'm on holidays I don't want to think about money. If you don't have a job to go back to then how long your cash reserves will last is something you think about every time you pull your wallet out. Especially if you've got a mortgage, I imagine having kids would make it even worse.
- moises_silva 10y agoI am not sure if you're agreeing or disagreeing with my comment. It does seem like we're saying kind of the same thing. May be you meant to post a parent comment? :)
- flukus 10y agoDefinitely agreeing :)
