Lisa, you got that right. Working a job for a living is definitely the pits. Self employment is a life of freedom :-)

Chris, that's because with working a job all you're doing is helping the owner of that business get wealthier! You're never really going to get anything from it more than a paycheck. It's not like when our parents were working and the companies at least paid for the insurance and other benefits. That's long gone. I mean if you're okay with that then that's fine. But I'd rather work my butt off for myself than for someone else. And truth be told, I'm not a good employee anyway. LOL😀

The funny thing is except for Restaurants I have normally had jobs that paid full benefits even 410K. No matter how great the job usually within about four months it would turn into boring work. I absolutely hate being bored, plus the money was never that good. It only took less than 6 months for eBay to surpass my Walmart wages but I held on to it for another year just to be sure, then I put in my two weeks, talk about shocked expressions lol
The reason I got fired from my corporate job is because after a couple of years of being really good at cataloging books they shoved me into a supervisory position. I was told I didn't have a choice and I made the mistake of using the company's Employee Assistance Program to try and get my job back the way it was. Never trust anything provided by the company. I was put on anti-depressants and anti-anxiety meds. I wasn't anxious or depressed. I was PISSED OFF because I didn't want to have direct reports. There is so much more to this story. But in every job I ever held there was a honey moon period and then it went to hell in hand cart.
The day I got fired was pretty entertaining, for me' anyway. There was shock and awe because I wouldn't react to them and only answered there questions with yes, no or shoulder shrug. I went full on passive aggressive. LOL
