Europe. With benefits, decent holidays, no limited number of sick days, can’t get fired without a proper reason (or you can sue them with a high probability of getting compensation or getting your job back). In Sweden the standard work week is 32 hours. In the Netherlands 36 but many do 32. Here in NL we have extra holiday money and often a 13th month payout. Irregular shifts have bonuses and extra time off, and aren’t allowed to be too long shifts. Not that all jobs are decent, but at least the law protects employees and many employers want employees to stay, so they are treated properly. There are also tax cuts for the first job you have, it just doesn’t apply to other jobs if you have multiple. And you build up a pension if you’re not self employed. I’d like to see the minimum wage to be raised, and equal in the entire EU. So there’s definitely room for improvement. But compared to the US it’s heaven.
It’s a great country, so long as you are there for the forests, and mot the healthcare.
People treat foreigners really well here. There is no anti-black racism (since no sane person would move here, so no black people for some asshole to raise hate against).
If you happen to visit Jagodina, then you are welcome!

I live in Serbia and just did overtime, on top of mybusual 54 hours work week.
It’s time you guys join the EU! For a while I’ve been wanting to visit your country, I’ve heard so many good stories.
