    Before anyone actually updates their resume to look better based on a meme:

    Sabbatical is just a long vacation. It’s not that you stop being employed, you just take an extended leave and almost always have an agreed-upon return date.

      A sabbatical has also come to mean a lengthy, intentional break from a career for non-academic professionals as well. There are very few norms and expectations for non-academic, or professional, sabbaticals. They can be paid or unpaid, affiliated with one’s employer or self-directed, and have a variety of durations, from several weeks to over a year
