something I did work out is that u need 3 sugar packets because there so skimpy 3 is the same to 2 teaspoons but the coffee packets are fine

Wrong.. Coffee packets too small.. Sugar packets too big.. 2 coffee packets in a small cup with a half a sugar... 3 in a big cup.

Was it hard work though and long hours? I'd love that sort of money but I couldn't do 12 hour days and the stress of running my own business I don't think...

12hr days is the easy bit, the stress of bills would be a killer. I don't think staino has it all as easy as the job he mentioned, would be some tight weeks as well. that's why I like wages, except now I have to price up jobs . . . if I underquote I take a hit.

Haha I worked for myself for a while.. Even in my job it was friggin expensive to set up.. Income was brilliant but getting paid per job when a job can take 3 months.. Not cool.. Especially when you bill the government departments and wait 6 to 8 weeks for payment.. Good on you blokes/blokettes that are doing it.. I did my time and I'll take my salary now..

I'm self employed, some jobs take up to a month at a time I ask for progress payments, works well :)

Progress payments work well when the client allows it.. Wasn't always possible. But I did have smaller jobs happening all the time..

I should probably also admit that I like getting things organised for me.. Being told when to be where instead of juggling everything myself is so much less stressful..
