Fri, April 1, 2005 at 8:47 I like this one. Jeremy Wright, the author of Ensight has written a great post that contrasts approach to work when you are employed and when it is your own business. I have only really just started building my own business and I can already identify with most, if not all, of these comparisons. Here is a sample:
When you work for someone else: You take full meal breaks.
When you work for yourself: You eat in front of the computer.
When you work for someone else: You get frustrated if you have to work more than an 8 hour day.
When you work for yourself: You’re shocked if you work for less than 12 hours a day.
When you work for someone else: It takes you an hour to get to work.
When you work for yourself: It takes you an hour to get to work ;-)
Yup, really identify with the last one!
