      Dear deidre, in a few years time I will be 40, but for some reason this year I have totally had enough of working and just want to quit and do something totally different, the stuff I do I don't really enjoy in fact I hate IT tbh but £ is good, but the thought of going on like this is for another 20 years is making me depressed.

      I have no other job to go to at the moment but I am on the verge of resigning (3 months notice), not sure if its a mid-life crisis and will pass, or if I should just go with it and quit ?
      the issue here sounds like you've been placed as 'contractor' in perm position, this is illegal and wrong and explains why you feel the way you do. the problem is most people don't have a choice.

      i've given up working via agencies only recently, but thats only because i don't need the £££ anymore. i've nearly doubled my asking rate and going out there looking for freelance.

        You can imagine the heartbroken scene before he woke up after she peed on that stick....

          Ahh well. Time to grow up and be a man, not a kidult. You are nearly 40 after all.

          But seriously of course you are thinking OMFG. Because your entire world has just been turned upside down.

          But don't worry. There is every chance that in 18 months time you'll be posting on here saying how pleased ( but knackered ) you are.

          Don't forget this fact. When the baby is born you are genetically programmed to love it, more deeply and fully than you have ever loved anything before.
