I will be working, if it is a weekday - International Translation Day doesn't really mean anything to me. | | |
I’ll have a little thought for all those who might be doing the same thing… | | |

But if it's the 30th of September, I'll either be packing or travelling home from a short holiday, so am unlikely to be working that day. | | |
Does anybody anywhere care about these things? | Sep 20, 2018 |
That said, I hear tomorrow is International Give Chris a Fiver Day | | |

I probably won't be working in that my son is arriving just the day before, so I want to spend some time with him. That said, there's an alumni meetup a few days ahead of it which I might just go to in networking mode. Chris, LOL, you're aiming low surely? | |

I'll be working, while glancing up occasionally at my print of St. Jerome, beavering away with his books, and watched over by three lovely muses. | | |

at Copenhagen University - like every Year. | | |

So many questions in the QP lead us to think translators are always looking for excuses not to work, and this is so untrue. Weekends, birthday, valentine's day, vacations... we are working in all of these days. Our breaks may be on a Monday or a Wednesday, business day or otherwise. | | |
