    Usually once a week. Mainly on a weekend when I'm also not working my full time job. I'll take one of those days off, or just check in with the forum and see if there is anything I should panda like a fire batch. I might keep watchers running for requesters I want to work for, but I don't have to work if I don't want to.

    I have to have a day off now and again where I'm just resting.

    Sometimes on weekends I'll have stuff I'm doing that prevent me from turking so that counts as a break, too.

    And if I'm totally fried, I won't turk when I get home from main job. Might bs in the forum but I generally won't turk to let myself rest.

    Working a ft job and turking part time can take a toll if I'm not careful. I burnt out last year, to the edge of stopping turking completely for months. I rearranged my schedule to include more downtime and now I'm golden and pulling in those fat Choice Lab bonuses.

    Just got that same email, lol. Was at first thinking it was confirmation that I just bought an app. I think this is like the second time in all the time I've owned an iPhone I've actually paid money for an app.

    Then you really should feel fine about taking a break, I can't work here with my job that would be so nice though. I think you are in too much of a routine of opening this up to work. Maybe enforced days off? when you get a day off from your job take one from here? You do need time for yourself where you can read, relax, or whatnot.

    On that side note if you had consistent 40 hour a week work and could only do this on the side, you would be in it as much as possible. When I was out these last 8 weeks (due to my doggo) I read the forum everyday and did a few hits here and there. Addictive as hell. What's the polar bear say?
    Damn you @ChrisTurk Seriously though it kept my sanity keeping up with all you guys and having a few needed laughs.

    OMG when I was growing up and we'd have ginormous family gatherings all the adults would play pinochle. I couldn't wait to be an adult to play this game.

    Tried once. Can't understand it. Too many extra cards! wtf? why could all my adults play this drunk and I can't grasp this game?

    I was scared to post too.

    When I finally did, @jessers made fun of me for being a Leaf fan. MTG jessers was vicious
