I think it was mentioning most Americans start at two weeks of paid vacation. Most, however, should have a bit more as every company I've ever worked at lets you accrue more for every year you work there. I wonder if the EU one was taken for the starting benefits or as an "average worker" statistic.

Most companies I've ever worked for give you one week vacation, one week sick. That's it.
The accruing of time I have only ever seen at the start of a new job - you don't start with anything; you need to earn it.
The Europeans I deal with and am related to get a hell of a lot more vacation time and sick time than any American I know. They take holidays at least once a month, and sometimes shut down completely for a week in the summer. Each employee seems to get maybe 4 weeks vacation a year at a minimum.
(That's based on what I know on Germany and France, and I don't necessarily agree with it.)
Jam it back in, in the dark.
