| I've noticed no difference based on the day of the week | Jun 7, 2018 |
I've noticed no big difference based on the day of the week, let's say that I get most of my requests on Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday. Friday is almost always very quiet (contrary to what I hear quite often some of my fellow Prozians say I usually don’t receive translation inquiries for work on a Friday). In over 40 years I can’t remember ever receiving a translation request on a Sunday, and I’ve received no more than a handful on a Saturday…

| No difference really | Jun 7, 2018 |

They all seem to want to receive the work back by COB on Friday. Like somebody's going to be poring over it on the weekend...

| That Friday feeling | Jun 7, 2018 |
One or two of my more significant clients have the habit of making high-volume, short-deadline requests between 5 and 6pm on Fridays .
Of course I don't mind that, if I work weekends I take days off during the week, but just saying....

any day of the week. One of my clients tends toward Thurs. or Fri. I can't seem them as "offers" since I'm the one offering the service.
