How many jobs or gigs are everyone juggling at the moment? The answer is three for me. A bit stressful but the money is pretty good.

How are you managing to juggle 3? Maybe it’s my luck but I’ve yet to be on a project where it’s slow enough for me to take on more projects.

3 with side projects it can be stressful AF but make hay. Some are day rate but will go from slow to busy. Some are project rate and take full advantage. Some are hourly and I’m billing actuals. You’re running a business it’s hard to figure out just the right balance. When I wasn’t freelance, working for a single agency, I frequently worked 5+ work streams for a lower salary. Time management - have a calendar you block across projects. Transparency on your avails and bandwidth. And plan for 12-14hr days.

2 gigs at the moment. I was handling 3 a few weeks ago that were really intense and that was pretty bad.

But first half of year was slower so I’m making up ground.

0.0 :(

All of them.

I have to tell my parents that I got engaged this weekend. They haven’t been taking the coming out well over the last year (i.e have isolated themselves from their community, screaming and crying when I’m on the phone with mom, dad hasn’t spoken to me since July). I’m incredibly nervous about this conversation. Going to have it in about two hours. Any words of advice?

Friendly reminder folks- don’t work for Havas Health and You. They cut the freelancers hourly rates, again and made it so there’s no OT. The resource manager at HOV said if I couldn’t swing $80 an hour as an HCP copywriter, she’d have to find someone else. Good luck 👍🏻

I’ve been a freelance print production designer for many years, and usually on-site in the before times. Now I work remote, and am finding it uneasy dealing with billing. Before I always billed hourly, which made sense, but it’s becoming an issue now. Some companies don’t have a full days’ work, so it seems wrong to bill full days, and it allows me to juggle projects for different companies, but my billable hours are down. I know I should bill a daily rate, but not sure that will fly. Thoughts?
