Just use 2000 hours. It makes the math easier, plus anybody who doesn't get (at least!) two weeks of vacation with their full-time job is a chump who needs to unionize anyway.

Vacation, stat holidays, sick days, we can keep adding it all. I'm going to stick to 2080.

The nice thing about assuming 2000 hours is that you can easily convert between annual salary and hourly wage by multiplying or dividing by 2 and moving the decimal point (e.g. $20/hour = $40k/year). But hey, if you'd rather do the math to come up with $40K/year = $19.23/hour or $20/hour = $41,600/year, more power to you, I guess.
