Yes. When I've read excerpts about life in the Soviet Union from workers perspectives, their lives are quite similar to ours with differences being that they didn't have the same economic worries we do in addition to having plenty of time to take off work with the bonus of having access to state-subsidized vacation facilities across many locations.
