I've worked in Europe and USA and the attitudes to days off are very different. People in Europe always take 1 or 2 week vacations and dont stay in touch - no one expects them to. At the end of year they have to use or lose vacation time so natrually everyone takes time off. USA people will go to their lake house but stay on call all the time. Finish the year with unused vacation time - seems just quite common.
