"to get rid of days like this think of becoming self employed."

Although I'd still thoroughly recommend it, it's no panacea - you still have to contend with the VAT man, the Tax man, the Accountants, the Lawyers, PAYE, NICs, IR35, red tape, etc, etc, etc...

But I think it's worth it!


(For the benefit of foreigners, VAT, PAYE, NICs, & IR35 are all UK taxation issues)
