We didn't become a "production" oriented society because of the boss people Those working decide that

You mentioned you're on salary, so this applies very much so to you... Time is money as the saying goes... But, what time is money? Obviously, not all of your time can equate to money. If you're getting your work done, then that additional time is essentially unpaid work you're doing - time is money, and it flows in both directions.

So even if it translates to a week of vacation - you can't use it, the timing is all wrong
