You fuckers joke, but this is totally not accurate. If your employer is large enough and you’ve got money to hire a lawyer if/when things go wrong, there’s a legally mandated program referred to as FMLA in the USA that gives you the right to 12 whole fucking unpaid weeks of time away from your job if the company that your employer contracts out to handle these things approves of your request and your medical providers properly fill out all the paperwork necessary. So suck it Europe. And suck it Asia. And suck it Africa. And suck it all the other continents that don’t have FMLA.
Unpaid. And, at least in my experience, you have to use up your paid leave before you can start drawing from that unpaid time. That is worlds different from the typical paid time off in Europe.
Edit: I totally missed the satirical tone of your comment the first time I read it.

Unpaid, and you need a lawyer.
And you say it as if it was a good thing. You people have been brainwashed by a cult.
