    Hahaha ! As for many of us, week-ends are for me the equivalent of a week of work for slave employees !!!!

    The difference is: a PM is not paid for weekend work, while a freelance translator is!

      As long as you can make "your" weekend on Wednesday and Thursday, I don't see a problem here either :-)

    Working on weekends is a welcome excuse to avoid having to meet the family.

    I had one agency who liked to try to send me jobs late on a Friday, due the following Monday morning. He learned quickly that I just wasn't available for that kind of nonsense.
