I dont get how creatives think that they deserve summer fridays and full weeks off during holidays.

What's wrong with a week off??CanHasQBN - nothing wrong with it.
It's just odd how some feel entitled.marychain - if you are going to take a week off, take a week off. dont complain because someone asked you to work for $$ on side********
- thats why you need to have a staffing firm to hire in emergencies********

ill do your work and take your client away from you, post their contact info, im real busy but never too busy for work. hook a fellow qbner up.. im always down for new relationships and building my clients trust and gaining more work.. if you want a holiday.. take it.. but ensure you dont lose your client by not doing the requested wwork but also by not advising someone to take your place..
post their info. we are hungrier than you.

it is kind of a strange question, i imagine one would ask with the thought that you'd turn it down if you were on vacation and didn't want to work.
but it's equally strange that people would react as if you were insane to turn down work.

Its sad for those of think someone isn't entitled to some undisturbed time off, especially this time of year. Who cares if we're in the creative field, we're not emergency services saving lives or something. No wonder so many here are burnt out. Relax people! You achieve less working stressed anyway. It was mentioned above about the easier lifestyle in parts of Europe... funny how with all that time off they're aren't really any less productive than North Americans.

not crazy - some of us don't have the luxury of not working this week

why wouldn't you work? being between some false prophet's supposed immaculate birthday and the beginning of a new decade should have little to do with your motivation
