[quote=Anonymous]I've been working part-time and also taking on some freelance projects for over a year now (SAHM). It's been somewhat hard to actually take off a real full week or two from the work without experiencing a pay cut if I do not work. I work as a freelance editor and also have a telework job on the side that requires at least 20+ hours per week. I've been able to take off a full week-- and actually not work at all-- only once. I have a few days off here and there, but have not been able to fully remove myself from work the way I used to be able to when working full time due to my hourly pay and lack of real paid vacation time. It's basically, no work, no hours, no pay. For those of you in the same boat, how do you find yourself real breaks? Is it even possible? Are you starting to actually miss a full time job with real benefits, i.e. 3 weeks vacation? [/quote]
