LOL, I just read it and boy, is every word true. Except maybe the "more freedom" part. That may be the biggest (or even only) benefit is that I can just make an executive decision that I am going to my child's open house and book that in my calendar. With a "real job" I have to get permission. Sometimes I am in crisis mode and can't, but crisis mode happens in the "real job" world as well. If you caught any flack it is from dreamers wishing that they could be a freelancer and you are bursting their bubble. John W.

At the very least, we'll compile a great list for ourselves. :) > > Dice.com seems to be the biggest one -- what do you guys think of it? > > Thanks! > Susan H.
