For 6 years, I've worked for a outsourcing firm which has given me 7 days of vacation, and only FOUR US holidays. It wasn't until this year that they expanded that to 10 days, and STILL won't give us Christmas Eve. (The company I'm placed in gets a week and a half at Christmas, full stop.) I'm a very senior person for the company, and I'm sure I'm one of the largest PO's they have. Please come talk to my management about how "any" company doesn't offer "at least" 2 weeks of vacation.

EDIT: Don't get me wrong. This situation works for me very well, but the average vacation situation in the US is abysmal.
