As a startup founder, do you have holidays?

Just ask a question on PH about work hours every week for founders. Surprisingly lots of people respond to it, and one of the comment mentions about this question, so I post it here:)
For my team, we do have legal holidays, but we are busy through out the week. Curious about the holidays for the rest of us.
Also, feel free to connect and check my product on my profile!

Holidays are a rare luxury 😅

Sure, but I try to be online all the time)
At least 8-10 times every year :)
Holidays are still coming up, and spending time with family is crucial.
You really don’t have periods when you completely switch off. But it’s also important to give yourself time off to fully recharge and reset
It depends on year :D last year I have 6 days off, year before 3 days. This year I plan to hit 8-10 days. :D (I am not founder, but work in startup on C level. )
I lie others i have :D
Launching soon!
As a founder you are needed a lot in the start, later you are not need as much. Catch up on holiday then.
Of course, every person should have holidays, if the founder does not have holidays, how will he understand clients? If a founder lives like a client and breathes the same life, then it matters. Tembolee holidays need to relax first of all.
Don't need "holidays" when you truly love what you do -- every day working on the product is a holiday :)
