because of the hobby?

I'm taking another day on Friday to pick something up and this will be the 4th or 5th day this year I've taken *just* for something arcade related.

Curious if other people do the same?

I take a week FROM the "hobby". I work for a retail/repair shop and take a week to get away from it....
 
Well, I was on vacation once on a Wednesday checking out an ebay auction in another state in Chicago. Pulled the trigger in the last minute (even though it was 5.5 hours away) as the first and only bidder, and decided to take a mini vacation with the wife to Chicago to go pick up the game. You can read about that road trip at http://www.thebasementarcade.com/roadtrips7.htm
 
Since I'm the boss I just have to decide if I can afford to let an employee work the extra hours. Profit margin in the restaurant besiness is razor thin. I'll usually just trade a shift with my right hand man.
 
my wife called in sick to go to the Seattle Pinball/Arcade show the weekend before last...

I've found people to cover my shift to go do things before, but have generally had fortune to be able to work around my work schedule
