Since I have started to work for myself I don’t think I have had a proper weekend. I work pretty much every day, I wouldn’t had though I was a workaholic however I think I’m going to have to come to terms with it.
I gave up working in companies for a number of reason these are probable the top three:
1. I didn’t want a boss.
2. I like to see the connection between the amount of work I do and the amount I get paid.
3. I like to decide what time I when I work.
However in this boss free paradise, I find that I work all the time and their now isn’t even a connection between the hours I work and the amount I get paid. Theirs always something else to do, and since I work at home there is always time to work. Also I am an insomniac meaning I can work and not get paid all through the night.
Sometimes I miss my boss, some time I miss the prying eyes and someone else paying me to read Dilbert cartoons, someone technical naïve so they had no idea how long it would take me to write three pages of html, some one who looks at a page of code and will do anything ANYTHING to prevent you from explaining it to them.
I’m training my cat to be more strict and to undervalue me, I think this will help my productivity.
