See, thats the difference in my scenario. I was working 12 - 14 hrs day some days. I was at the mercy of my employers. I had to be at the office for 0930 and then could be sent on appointments all day right upto 8pm at night. Many times I would be sent to say, Telford at 8pm, after a two hour appointment I wouldn't be getting home till after 11pm.
I used to get excited if I was home before 8pm
Spent three years working like that 'serving my apprenticeship' so to speak.
Not anymore. I don't have the security of a salary anymore but business has been very very lucrative in my first month I now work about 4 hours a day and take 100% of the cake
