What holidays would you be willing to work, and for how much? I am thinking specifically of Christmas (and other related days of observance for various religions, beliefs and faiths - or not). For some of us most holidays amount to "just another day" but even so would you attach a premium to it?
I know there will be some cute and catty comments shared, but I hope a few will give this topic some serious consideration before responding, hopefully, in a candid and professional manner.
Because all my family is out-of-state, 98 percent in Texas, and I am on the West Coast, usually either volunteering my time (particularly on Thanksgiving and Christmas days, sometimes New Year's Day) at the local homeless shelter or food distribution center, and because the possibility of a Christmas Day gig has come up, I wondered how others would approach this. Due to my lifestyle I would provide event production coverage, but WOULD most definitely require a significant premium over my standard rates to do so.
