Client Poll: The Economy

NSFW

Everyone is aware the economy sucks for most of America right now. I’m interested to hear from clients who actively see workers: Has your behavior changed in the past 6+ months due to the economy, and if so how. Please elaborate in the comments if you are willing.

This should be taken with a grain of salt— random people on the internet, and many clients, lie. But I am personally curious, and also feel there is group benefit from a structured conversation in this forum about it.

Reddit won’t let me create an actual poll here (not sure why) so please respond in a comment instead.

———————————-$$$———————————

How has your behavior changed, if at all, in the past 6 months to a year, due to the economy? If you comment, please also share about your job/industry if you are comfortable doing so.

  1. no change
  2. change in frequency of bookings
  3. change in date length(s)
  4. change in rates of workers you patronize
  5. other— please explain
