[DUG] 7 Job Positions Open

[James Sugrue]

I have been in a similar situation. Maybe you could negotiate with them the
ability to contract back to them when you leave. I managed to do that. 

BTW grass is always greener etc. I have done both - been self employed, and
been an employee. Both sides have positives, and both sides have negatives.

If you have definite financial security as a contractor / self employed,
then its brilliant, but that's not always possible. I am currently a salary
slave. Luckily I am the guy in charge of IT, so have the final say on IT
issues which is good, but I still have to fit in to other peoples hours and
show up on time everyday etc.

Being your own boss is great and would recommend it to anyone who has the
chance. It can also be a PINTA. Invoicing, dealing with tax, GST, etc are
all things that I can do without....

Good Luck Jeremy, I genuinely wish you all the best.

But it is hard, because I want out of my current role now, but I now they
would be stuffed if I did, and it does play on my mind. End of the day tho,
its not my problem, its theirs for no proper stucture, and letting key
personal leave, but still....  :-(
