If you're working every day you make the same money, doesn't matter which day you do it!

Not noticable in the short term maybe but over the year, or come xmas, that's 2 weeks worth of money that should have been in your pocket. The only way to bring it back in line is to go round say 3 weeks later next time instead of 4. But my customers wouldn't like that.

Still, haven't heard of it much lately. Maybe it's dying out.
