As a non American this reads as satire, but from what I hear about the US work culture I really can't be sure.
I don't know if this is satire or rage bait but ironically it's almost certainly a UK individual as he refers to them as "Bank holidays" and the 28 days is only about 8 above the statutory minimum of 20 + bank holidays.
That's true. Plus do Americans have terms like staycation?
I have no idea, I assume so given it's using the word "vacation" which is predominantly an American term that they do and that the very concept is just less popular since they typically get much fewer "vacation" days, they probably try to make the most of their time off.
I have no clue though, I'm just making shit up at this point.
You're on the right track I think. I'll just add that staycations are fairly popular here because we're too fucking tired to go anywhere on the few days we have off.
or simply don't have money to go anywhere
