    You'll soon get over it when the money runs out.
    True but the money in this job is great and it is permanent. Other guys in the team have been doing it for years.

    It seems like a dream gig in so many way... just not sure if it is for me.

    But dont want to go back to the 9-5...just need a way to stay sane.

      It's funny, there must be a million guys who give anything for your type of set up. What you need is a permie woman, they might drive you mad but at least it would keep you sane

        You just need to find another job you could combine with this one

        Front desk at a brothel, pay ? fringe benefits
        Fiscal nomad it's legal.

          Been doing this for 4 years so far.

          Only advice I can give is this:

          1. Make sure you don't end up coding in your underwear everyday

          2. Get out at lunchtimes and chat to as many cashiers as possible

          3. Don't save all your gossip for clients - they'll think you have a problem and won't phone you again

          4. Shut the office door every Friday evening and don't got back until Monday morning - don't erode the boundaries of work and play time
          If you think my attitude stinks, you should smell my fingers.

                Indeed and so say the majority
