    Default Breaking up your hours?

    Hey everyone. So I started a new site today and worked 3 hours on it this afternoon and loved it! I'm going to be trying to work 8 hours a day. Ack, I'm so not used to that any more. So how wold you guys break up an 8 hour day? 4-break-4 or maybe 2-break-2-break-2-break-2?

    Oh, keeping in mind that I will be in free chat talking outloud (no keyboard) and totally bubbly and "on" the whole time. I'm worried about burnout if I go too hard to fast. Thanks.

    I would do 2 break 2 break 2 break 2. Personally it's really hard for me to keep up that bubbly "on" persona for longer than 2 hours at a time. I would have a really hard time doing 8 hours a day, go you!

    Exactly what I was thinking! I usually work in 2 hour increments in freechat cause I start to get bored/annoyed trying to be happy and fun after about 2 hours lol, also my face starts to hurt from fake smiling I just have a natural scowl
    >.<;
    But I agree on keeping it short, if ya have more of a tolerance for free chat I would try to go for 3-break-2-break-3

    I have NO tolerance for free chat, normally. But as I'm being paid hourly and HAVE to keep my clothes on unless tipped to flash or taken pvt, suddenly free chat seems much more bareable hahaha.

    Good advice...I was thinking this myself and trying to figure out what my schedule is going to be...

    I burn out *super* fast...like lightening...but I have a habit of working like a mad woman...6-8 hours at a time then after about a week, Im back to plotting how to delete the internet.

    at least 2 on, 1 off, 2 on, etc would be better than my usual method.

    2 to 3 hours. if your in free chat that long after a few privates you will get annoyed when you hear the same quesitons 600 times and over and over.

    I try 2 to 4 hours depending on free chat or not. In free chat I would probably do 2 hours then take a break. But if it is really busy, then I will try to stay 4 hours. Break,have lunch/dinner, do some house work, or other online promotion stuff. Then back to work. The longer you do it, the more natural it becomes.
    Taking a break from all unproductive shit will prove to be the best choice you can make.

    I don't think that's true - when i started i was SUPER excited to get on cam and stay there for 6 hours or so. Over the months this has gotten less and less to the point where i can't stand being on cam any longer than 3 hours now. And that's in PAID privates. I couldn't manage any free chat longer than 15 mins

    I don't really know what to do. I'm working at a site right now that's pay per hour, which I love because it's very professional and I love having guaranteed income. However, the shifts are 6 hours long with 1 15 minute break I thought I could handle it but I'm not sure if I can, I could just barely handle Webcamclub's 1 hour feature show and 3 hours of free chat right afterwards without feeling burned out. I'm really not sure what to do because I want to keep the job, but at the same time I think it's a bit much and if I asked for shorter hours/longer breaks I possibly might get fired because they are very strict and monitor everyone closely. What is the best way to handle this? It's so hard to dance, tease, smile, act sexy, stare at the computer, and act all giggly and ditzy for 6 straight hours!!

    I *could* start a studio there if I could get a couple of girls to sign up under me, but I would promote them and I wouldn't require exhaustive shifts! The problem is, since I'm already signed up under a "studio" essentially, how would I get out of it? Would I be able to close that account and sign up directly? Hmmm...

    I wouldn't start a studio if I wasn't offering the girls anything. I just think it's unfair. Unless you can offer them some perk don't do it.

    I actually PREFER to work long hours straight, but the biggest problem of late has been my eyes - now I have to wear glasses pretty much all the time so that when on cam or on a date I can wear my contacts. My eye doc recommended this FANTASTIC eye drop though - it's not the fake stuff like Visine, it's called Systane and it's a natural tear drop - you can get it in drug stores - it has helped me immensely.

    So if you want to be with me
    With these things there’s no telling
    We just have to wait and see
    But I’d rather be working for a paycheck
    Than waiting to win the lottery
    Besides maybe this time is different
    I mean I really think you like me

    You can't sign up with that site unless you are signed up under a studio. If you sign up as an "independent" model, you just get handed to a studio. Weird, but that's how it works on there. I actually asked the owner of the site! If you don't believe me then feel free to ask for yourself haha

    It might not be true for you, but it is the case for me. I work A LOT, and am use to it by now.

    Thankfully this site isn't like that. I didn't see a single "bb" in 6 hours. Only one person asked to see my tits and they were laid the smack down by the other guests it's AWESOME! So freechat is super pleasant.
