    I’ve found myself in that situation several times!

    I totally relate. One might say: http://icanhascheezburger.files.wordpress.com/2007/01/2000455272489756911_rs.jpg

    Actually, I find fulltime freelance does have some drawbacks. Chances are the guy on the left doesn’t have health insurance, and he seems to always have weeks where he’s not working. Ok, maybe I’m a little bitter.

    Freelance is not always bear and skittles though, it does have its downfalls…
    I am currently chasing two clients for money :(

    When will this day come?!!! :)

    PS: Thanks for this awesome blog! seriously!
    You guys always write about what to do when you are a freelancer, but almost never of *how* to start being one! Well yeah I have read the great ‘10 reasons why you should be one’, the truth is it only got me to drool more :)
    Can you have just a little more of those how tos

    It’s so true! However, I usually get the commentary about how people think I sit and eat bon bons and watch soaps all day. They’re starting to take it seriously, though. Love these comics!

    Sigh…. I still work both a 9 – 5 and freelance. Soon to break that barrier though…I can taste it. And it tastes like freedom.

    Its true if you can pull yourself away. I am finding I put in practically twice as many hours as I did for a company. The only upside is I am getting paid for all those hours.
