Also, if French people take the month of August off, who is who is working at restaurants and stores? Do those people take a different month off?

To answer your first point, no, just slower due to staff shortages. That's not closure, it's staff shortages.

"No such thing as a norm of going on vacation in summer" is the dumbest thing I've heard in a while. It's summer! It's literally the best time to go on holiday as it's warmer and it's school holidays so it makes sense for most people. Now I have a question...are you a USian? I ask because "lack of vacation" is a very US thing for many and you might just be thinking your life is the norm everywhere whereas, for those in civilised countries, it isn't.
