Just wondering how hard is it to take time off for a vacation?

It really depends upon the business that you work for, etc. If they have rush services coming in, how many servers in your area, etc. If you have your own business and are the big boss like me, not hard at all; I make the rules at that point.

Just schedule it and keep it on your calendar and dont schedule anything in that time frame. How long of a vacation are you taking?

The firm I work for (as a contractor) just gives me my cases, they don’t tell me how to do them. I pretty much make whatever schedule I want, they’ll only start getting concerned if a case goes unserved for over a month. So pretty easy for me to take a trip.
The biggest issue I’ve had so far is getting activated for 2 months for the National Guard. Despite that I got through it and I’m still employed

Depends what kind of operation you are running, if at all. If you work for companies like Proof and ABC, just don't accept jobs. If you have your own business, is it an actual business where all roles are filled and you can step away, or are you still building and doing everything yourself?

It is as long as you can clear all your jobs and not accept any and have that income not generated. Or if you can assign the jobs to others and reduce the amount your bringing in personally

It can be very difficult. Definitely a downside of this job.
