Yes several times in the past. But at my current company 100% of employees get the same vaca package regardless of tenure or seniority so I failed here lol.

Thanks everyone! I’ll see if they are willing to negotiate an extra week.

How many vacation days are you asking for?

If it’s truly universal/structural at the company, you can try to get the difference in $$$ and get it in writing you can take additional unpaid days

How concerned are you about inflation? We have 70% savings rate and 50% of our expenses are housing / utilities of which the largest part is rent which is a fixed contract (no CPI escalation, no automatic increases, paying same rent for 4 years). No car as we are living in a large city. So if I look at the components of CPI and what’s rising I am feeling pretty „good“ about it. The one thing I am „worried“ is asset inflation but obviously that benefits me directly. What am I missing?
