"unlimited vacation" ... yeah we all know how well that works out


I don't. How have you seen it work out?


It doesn't work. It makes something that should be explicit into an implicit thing.

Where do you draw the line? Can I take 2 months holiday leave? No? That doesn't sound like unlimited to me, so let's not call it that.
