Beautiful visualization! Also interesting data. Nice work.
Germany and UK seem to be outliers in terms of their low variance throughout the year.
Italy and Cyprus don’t fuck around in early August.
Netherlands and Serbia…”Christmas shmistmas, whateves”.
Awesome data. Want to get anything done this week in Hungary? You’re shit out of luck!
It looks like people in Germany and UK never go to vacation. /s
Damn, seeing the UK so light on absences makes me feel sad lmao also who knew Hungary was the Christmassiest nation around?
I’m confused, OP. Does this graph mean that more than 90% or Europeans work on Christmas?
If not, what am I missing?
It is a nice visualization
I find the difference between Czechia/Slovakia and their northern neighbor fascinating, especially for Christmas.
For someone who works for a German company, not in Germany. This is BS.
There always on holiday
Any reason you didn’t include Sweden? I’d like to see how it compares to Norway and Finland.
UK you good bro? How many days do yall get a year?
If you want to take it next level, calibrate the spring months so that Easter aligns (both calendars). You’ll find the slight darkening spread over a number of weeks will become much hotter if Easter were considered fixed rather than mobile.
To call it vacation is misleading. In Hungary people don’t usually *go on vacation* in december. There are a fixed number of PTO days in a year and if they had not used those days during the year, they must take them before the end of the year whether they like it or not. That’s why december is red.
