I got several requests today so unless they were computer generated, someone besides me is open.
I doubt any tomorrow though.

I haven't interpreted anything here as whining. My interpretation is that people here were hopeful for work today. Some enjoying the fact that others take off and they have an easier time getting the work.

Maybe it's just differences in the way we filter information.

I did get new work today and I'm not whining about it, just to be clear.

I didn't see anything as whining either. Just some commenting on how some people use one holiday as an excuse to take more days off.

Yeh, I wasn't whining - nor accusing anyone else of whining! My view is, I will do all the work someone wants to assign me. Like Dayton & Vermont were noting, "weekends" and "holidays" are pretty much "days" like any other days. I have rental property and those folks taught me a long time ago that "quittin' time" doesn't exist when you work for yourself! LOL And it's all okay, all good.

On the flipside, my point was that if I didn't get assigned any bpos today or over the weekend, it would be okay too.

My parent owned a 24 hour convenience store when I was growing up. People always ask my father why he was always open 24 hours. He always replied "I pay rent 24 hours". I grew up with the idea that you had to work and be grateful because some people are not so lucky. In Korea people suffer very much from hard times. I perceive some people here sometime as complaining that they have no time off or that the money is not so good for some orders. I am sorry if I offend some people maybe I am too rigid. I have been working 7 days a week for years. I take off Sunday morning to go to church and have lunch with my family. I am grateful to God for the work I receive. I feel sad when I see so many people right now in America are suffering and they would give anything to be in our shoes. One day I hope I have more time to enjoy the fruits of my labour and to spend more time with my family. Today I labour. America is the greatest country in the world. I am very blessed to live here.

Everyone lives their lives differently. Whenever I talk to people almost all would (never) say I had the fondest memories of working so much........

It would be about traveling,time with family,life experiences.

I lost my father along with other family members at a young age. What I learned from that is TIME not MONEY is valueable. There are some of the richest (money) people in the world that die everyday and can't BUY more time.

For those who are workaholics and that's their existence that is fine. I have no problem saying I take extended holidays. Heck some of my clients (developers) take a week vacation every 1 to 2 months or longer.

I am taking a 4 day this weekend and I love it. CC sent me 3 bpo requests and I let someone else have them. I only get holidays once a year and then they are gone. I can make money anyday of the week.

This is the attitiude that made this country the greatest place on planet Earth. What a wonderful reminder of what we are preparing to celebrate tomorrow, whether or not you are working or relaxing. Thanks for the reminder B29.

I just received an order from CC today, pays for my fireworks smile After receiving an order on Christmas Day and Thanksgiving last year, I've learned that any day, any time, an order will come in.
