Someone on Twitter figured out how to maximize your vacation days next year by grouping them around holidays, so you end up with big chunks of time off.  It’s based on having 18 vacation days a year.  In January, take the Thursday and Friday before Martin Luther King Day, if you get that following Monday off too, it’s five days in a row. In April, take off the full week before Easter.  If your company’s closed on Good Friday and Easter Monday, it only requires four vacation days, and with both weekends, it’s a ten-day break.   In July, take off Monday, July 3rd.  That will give a four-day weekend.  Next November, take the full week after Veterans Day and the three days before Thanksgiving.   It’s eight vacation days, but gives you up to seventeen days in a row to enjoy! And finally, next December, take the four workdays between Christmas and New Year’s, and you’ll have a ten-day holiday break.
