I wish I could be an employee but it's not in me

I wish I could have held down a pi$$ easy gov't job for thirty years but it's not in me

I wish I could keèp my trap shut when an employer does something stupid but I can't

 

So self employment is my only option ........

Flexibility is the key.. I've taken a part time job instructing and run my small business in the time I have left.. I don't rely on the income from my business because of the job and so have no pressure on making money leaving my business to tick over nicely.. first time in my life I've not been a slave to work and I'm aiming to keep it that way. :D:D:D

:biggrin: I think on Dartmoor we'd be broke if we had even 50% of the wet days off!

cos not being an 8-5 type of person means I start when I want, and finish when I want, doing what I want, when I want, if I want, so I cant blame anybody else about the job, and realised a long time ago that lifes not dictated by a clock. now when somebody asks me the time, it's either light-o-clock or dark-o-clock, and lunch times when my belly rumbles for food.........life is sweet :)

I'd like to be self employed I think. I find working for someone stressful especially as I'm stressed due to their not putting enough time on jobs, barely maintaining gear and endlessly whinging. I done mind a bit of stress if its due to my own mistajes

You don't have to 'touch base' to do some 'blue sky thinking' for the 'vision statement' of your management plan.
