This thread is depressing.

A vacation, to me, is when I get three days off in a row.

You need a new job!
I hope you make the most of your time off. Don't spend it cleaning.

I think its rather ridiculous that many on this thread that claim to care about the middle class and what they are going through. Is so willing to thumb their nose at them. Because many on here is able to take vacations and get away they want to ignore the many more that cant.

Maybe those on here should feel blessed to be able to take them and be humble for those that arent. For those that are humble are the ones truly blessed.

Well in my case, I plan a lot. I figure out where I wanna go and how much it will cost and how much I need to take out of each check to have enough money to get there when I wanna go. Plus I work in hospitality so I get great discounts on hotel stays, airfare and rental cars. If I didn't have those discounts I'd probably travel a lot less but I figure might as well use it while I can Plus I have a lot of "hook-ups" all across the nation so I get in a lot of places for free or at a really good discount.

Did you whine when Bush took over 3 years of vacation during his 8 years in the White House?
Did you know that Bush is no longer the president?

Obviously not since you keep going on and on about him making up excuse after excuse in defense of Chairman Obama. The funny part is that from the tone of your posts it appears you don't even reside in the US. Of course you love him ... because you don't have to deal with the effects of his policies
