Wim,
<p>The short answer is, it is overtime if all of my appointments are full.
<p>If I add appointments after that, I am eating into time I designated
as personal or for other responsibilities, and I am rarely willing to do
that at the regular charge. Maybe you all should know that I quit
my last job because it placed too many demands on my time, so I am determined
not to let that happen with this job.
<p>Incidentally, since writing the original post on this subject this morning,
I added an extra appointment to tomorrow's already full schedule.
And yes, the client is fully aware that she is paying considerably more
than the normal rate to get the fast service.
<p>Regards,
<br>Clyde

as charging "overtime" for a new client who wants to schedule a couple

what is considered overtime? We are self employed. We set our own hours.
So what would be considered working overtime?</font></font></blockquote>
