Sean Collins Walsh & Jenny DeHuff recently told this story at Philly.com:
"HOW WOULD YOU like to work at a place where most employees take about eight weeks off every year? Look no further than the city of Philadelphia, where the typical municipal worker gets almost 50 days of paid leave and uses an average 38 days per year - more than the average state or local government employee and far more than private-sector workers, according to U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics data."
