With leave, etc, it works out around 180 days work each year. 6 days leave equals 14 days at home. AND.. you get paid too!
@ HEATHROW DIRECTOR: do those 180 days include leave days or not?

In Spain, we work in 8-day cycles: 2 earlies, 2 lates, 1 nights/days, 3 off (or sleep day plus 2). If you divide 365 days/8 = 45.6 working cycles. Our yearly holidays are 6 cycles + 1 extra cycle (this one has to be authorised by the management, if it isnīt, you get paid), so we really work 38.6 cycles, that is 38.6x5 = 192.5 effective work days a year.

In your case, you work 10-day cycles, so 365/10 = 36.5 cycles = 219 working days. So if as you say, you work 180 days, that leaves 39 paid days off, that is 6.5 cycles of holidays.

Is this correct?
