Do you have ground rules for when you allow yourself to buy a new watch (or any luxury good)? Is it your reward for a personal goal? Do require all of your other finances or personal affairs to be in tip top shape? Or are you a bit more adventurous, willing to indulge in some gratification now even though there could be wiser decisions on how to use those funds?

I’ve worked at places that all have different holiday policies. EA has at minimum a nice 10 day shutdown from Christmas Eve through New Years. It’s great to know that there will be no slack messages or an exploded inbox to come back to while away. I’ve been at other studios that only give you Christmas Eve & Day and New Years Eve & Day and then the rest is up to you to request for PTO and this is obviously the suck.

Wonder what it’s like for you?
