I agree with many. The man gets too much time off. Ive added up his average work week schedule and he only works 15-20 hours a week anyway. Hardly a demanding job. My sister in law was an assistant manager at Marshalls and routinely would work from noon to closing on her feet 10 hours a day.

A side note on the show tonight he announced he was invited to the "Today Show" Saturday and will be on between 8:30-9:00 am presenting two recipes.

@Reever You added up his work week hours? But that's only what you see on TV.

The hosts have mentioned, many times on their social media pages that they have office days. These are the days when they are not scheduled to be on-air, but they must come in for all-day meetings and training on products. A lot of them post photos and videos on these days. The have cubicles just like other office workers, where they sit and do work on their computers.

In addition, on their on-air days, they are at the studio many hours before their show begins. More product preparations, and then all that time for them & the stylists to get their outfits together, study the line-ups for the shows, and their hair & make-up.

So they earn their salary, and their vacation days, I'm sure.

@Reever. He does not just work 15-20 hours a week. If you follow any host you will see that. A good portion of time is a preparation, as a previous poster pointed out.

The hosts spend much time in the QVC building when they are not on air. But whatever.

This host is on too much!

This host is not on enough!

I want a mug!

I don't want a mug!

This is why I love this place.

So what great arbiter in the sky is to determine who does and does not get "too much" time off? The same one who decides who makes "too much" money. It is not the bisiness of anyone except the employer and employee.

@Reever
Have we been reading the same thread. I did not see where the majority of posters shared this sentiment.

Not to beat a dead horse. but as others have posted, the hosts work many more hours then just what you may view on the screen.

@Reever unless you are his employer who are you to say he gets too much time off? Any time he gets and takes is between him & his boss. If it wasn't approved, he wouldn't be taking it. Yes, your sister-in-law may have worked 10 hours a day on her feet at Marshalls but she knew that before she took the job, to compare her to David is senseless.

I think I might just bring out my George Forman.

I really am not interested in David or any host taking vacation. Just gets tiring when Mary has to constantly "explain" why David isn't on, etc. Makes no difference to me on any program if the regular host isn't on. Sometimes the show is better with some variety. We all know employees accrue vacation. David must be tired of having to explain his days off. I am really not interested in "where" a host is. I feel it is none of my business.

@Reever Where is the common sense.

There is so much more than just being on the air with a 3 hour show.

When you watch the national nightly news, the hosts are on 30 minutes Monday through Friday. So with your assumption they would only work 2.5 hours per week. WRONG. It takes several hours per day in order to be prepared for that 30 minutes news cast. There is so much more that has to go on in order to prepare for that.

You assume QVC hosts wake up, go in to ONLY do their 3 or 4 hour show, then leave and go back home.
