    it's quite rare for any American to take more than one week off from work at a time.

    Yes it's true, most Americans only get 1-2 weeks of vacation time per year, more if you stay at the job longer. But I don't know too many people that have been at or will be at any job for more than 5-6 years before moving on, and therefore won't get more than 3 weeks of time off.

    I've been at my job for 4.5 years, and I only get 2 paid weeks of vacation plus a handful of personal days per year.

    Oh man that kinda sucks, we get 4 week paid leave and you can take unpaid leave if you want extra or leave in advance, and 10 personal days a year (that I always feel too guilty to use) and they accrue.
