ou talk about the salaries (Europe versus the USA), don't forget that they pay much higher taxes in Europe and the UK.

Work for a company like EOG Resources. They pay more and new hires start with 4 weeks vacation. 1/2 day Friday’s are nice too.

"Vacation" is for closers, not for seat warmers.

Because we just live your whining so much, we never want you to leave the office.

Paid more in the US!
Surely you are a jester.
If only because most of the Execs are from US (or americanized UK perps).
Average that out, then it looks like 'american' bump.
Artificial as any EM slogan.

OP - you are right. Just read the responses from these bitter swine.
Step on this stone as briefly as possible.

Either work in the US and get paid way more or work in Europe and get 6 weeks of vacation but get paid half as much.

your choice.

Because we have enough fresh college grads whom are taking countless hours from productive workers to train them up??? New grads are nothing but a load on real workers, especially when they leave after a year or two.

This is only in US. In Europe it doesn't matter whether you are college grad or not. Standard is 4-6 weeks vacation in most European country.
EM Belgium employees have 9-10 weeks vacation (so please don't wonder if they move some jobs to Czech or Hungary)

This is why I was hired by ESAF (France) after graduating from US university.
Chemical Engineering with minor in French.
6 weeks my first year in.

Because the only people we can hire will accept getting kicked in the teeth to be employed. #winning
