Freelancers
101 Reasons Freelancers Do it Better
Here are a few good ones:
5. Meetings about nothing: Corporate workers are often required to attend time-wasting meetings
12. Following your heart is easier: You can choose to eliminate working with organizations that conflict with your ethics.
21. You can get rid of your car altogether
33. Your dog loves you more
74. Rocking out is OK: You can listen to music or watch TV in the background without worrying about bothering a cube neighbor.
And I few that aren't really true:
25. Better pay: Freelancers generally earn more because employers don't have to deal with the overhead of keeping a full-time employee.
I dunno, most freelancers I know of make less overall than the average worker when you factor everything in. I know I'd be making more $$$ if I had a 'real job'.
27. Control over your hourly rate
Well ... sort of. You can charge what people will pay you and they will always try to talk you down.
But overall, it's a pretty accurate list.
