Hello ! As you may notice, I'm getting to the queue a bit late tonight. I had to work today and I'm absolutely wiped, haha. I may not get to everything tonight, but I'll be able to do more on Friday :)

On a similar note...

I've had the opportunity come up at the clinic to possibly change my schedule. It would have me working Monday-Thursday (right now I work Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays). There's obviously some great benefits to this (three-day weekend every week?! Heck yeah!), but there's also a few downsides.

If I switch my shift, it would mean that something with the queue would need to change. It's very hard for me to come home from a 10-12 hour shift at the clinic and do a lot more work. One of the issues I had back in the day with my job here was not putting realistic boundaries on my time. It's definitely something I'm going to continue to avoid at all costs - I don't want to suffer a burnout.

With the switch shift, the queue would be done on Fridays and Sundays. I know this leaves a LOT of time between days, which is why on EITHER Tuesday or Wednesday (depending on how damn tired I am!), I would spend time going through to do just recolors. This does mean that some things may sit in the queue a few extra days longer than others; recolors are always easiest to do, so that would be the best use of my time on those longer days.

I'd love to know your thoughts on this! Is this something that you think seems fair and would work for all of you?

I want to be clear: responses here don't mean 100% that I either will or will not take this schedule change. There are a lot of things for me to factor into this, and this is just one piece of that puzzle. But I'm genuinely curious for your thoughts and input!

If you feel more comfortable reaching out to me one on one with your thoughts either in sMail or via Discord, feel free FOR THIS ONLY (I mean I am always 100% down to chat on Discord ANY time, but please don't message me there about say, your CW in the queue. That just makes me sad)
