Good for you, Ben. My generation of scientists were mostly at work a few days after their Ph.D. and never took a long break without employment. That was certainly my story.

In contrast, my three kids and grad students have often taken noticeable time off between gigs. That seems a lot more sensible to me than hurrying from one treadmill to the next.
