Hahahaha, automotive is kind of the exception, in the US vacation is an uncommon thing. Generally you’ll get 1 day off for specific federally mandated holidays, and a number of days of paid time off that covers both sick days and vacation probably averaging around 15 days per year.
15 total days of paid time off may be average for people who actually get PTO, but most people I know only get paid when they come in to work - no PTO at all
You’re quite right, I don’t know the number but the US’s rate of people with no leave at all is significant. My original post mostly applies to salaried employees
