What time do you actually start doing some work? When I was FT, it was around 10 since I get to the office around 9 30. Do you have morning habits before working during wfh?

Depends on what I have to do. Sometimes I’ll get up early, have coffee and do work, then workout and do stuff for myself. Then do more work.

I usually start at 9:30/10. If I'm on deadline I might start earlier, but usually prefer to work later than start early

My boss (exec director) and I need to come up with a schedule strategy. We work in a hybrid setting, 1-2 days in office, the rest remote. As you all know, the days fill up quickly with travel, meetings and requests internal, external, new partners etc. Fridays are usually off limits to schedule anything unless it’s super important or really no way to work around it. have you seen something, created or implemented a strategy/guideline that would free up more time? I know saying no more would help

How would you rate the freelance market at the moment? I’ve recently quit fulltime, and beyond a couple of my own (LLC) short client projects - I’ve had zero agency freelance over the summer.
I have 10 years exp (2.5 as CD on well known brands) at respected agencies, and some awards.
What am I doing wrong? I left FT to address some long term burnout, but now I’m afraid if this continues - I’ll have to go back full time, without even snagging a FL gig. 🫤
