After working for yourself anyone miss having a job?
I was thinking back to college when I worked as sears and in a way miss it. The interaction and co workers looking at me as their equal not the business owner.
I guess sometimes I miss having a normal job. |
not one tiny bit :2 cents:
|
Yeah. Not for the job itself. but the social aspect of it.
|
I don't miss it at all. It's great working from home.
|
ofc not!

Nope.
I've been working for myself in one way or another for about 16 or 17 years. Can't imagine having a boss. |
|
Its like school, everyone misses it because it's a way to socialize without having to try. Not having a job, or being in school makes you have to work in order to have a social life.
So get off your ass and go meet people! :-p working for someone else sucks ass. viva la entrepreneur-ness!!!! |
No, quite honestly.
|
I don't miss it at all.
|
i dont miss people :D
|
How many of you had a manager who busted your balls.. even though you did a great job?
Fuck workin' for a boss. :( |
I miss it. For example the co-workers.
|
Every Fucking Day
|
Social aspect? Yes.
Working a 9-5? No. |
There is nothing more important than being your own boss as you get older. :2 cents:
|
pics or it didn't happen
|
If I'm going to work for an asshole, it's going to be me. So no, I don't miss it.
|
|
Not really, you won't ever pass that line working for someone else.

Hopefully soon I'll be making enough online to quit my other job and focus on my online projects. |
I've been self employed for the last 15 years, and during those years I've also worked for others....
The ONLY thing I "miss" about working for others is the "guarantee" of the paycheck, knowing that at the end of the week there WILL be a check takes a lot of stress away, where as say when I was doing nothing but content producing / selling there could be weeks with ZERO sales and the stress level was deff there. Which do I like better in all honesty? It's honestly a toss up tbh, I like being my own boss, but in this day I think stability is more important to me then "taking orders" -Loki- |
I really liked the last organization I worked for, I stayed there for 7 years. Sometimes I miss it because it was usually something exciting that most people never get the chance to do. But sometimes it was some boring shit as well.
But I've been self employed for almost 15 years now and dont see any reason to change, although I did apply for a job as a diver at the Shark Reef a couple of years ago just because I thought it would be fun. |
Commuting more than 20 miles one way every day can be a major pain. Plus the savings on wear and tear to your car is tremendous. You can keep miles super low on a new car.
Was coming back from the city today in normal interstate traffic. Btw, BAD day to go to Walmart on the first. LOL Madhouse! Im in the right lane doing 67 in a 65 on a basic interstate when I see this car coming up hard behind me. He passes me on the RIGHT SHOULDER doing about 85 (when he could have passed normally on the left) then immediately ahead of me veers over to the left lane but is then finally trapped in by traffic in both lanes and sits in the left lane doing about 69. What an idiot. It was hotter and muggier than heck today and tends to make people have no patience. Too much stress out there now days. Ya dont realize how good you got it. You have to get out once in a while but you forget how traffic sucks and has always sucked. |

I've been self employed for 6 years now and running the site as a full time occupation has been a great experience for me...and something that I hope to continue doing for as long as I can. I really don't see myself doing anything else other than working in this industry.
And hell no....I don't miss anything about any of my previous jobs! |
I don`t miss anything from my old life. Is good just the way it is now.
|
It would take a really great project and team to get me out of my place every day.

I miss telling other workers to do my work for me otherwise I will take their lunch money and then fire them. But seriously, I do miss the joys of having employee's. However I like the fact I can do whatever I want whenever I want.
|
I just prefer to get paid for doing nothing.

Being the Boss is the only way to go. Remember, it's Mister Peabody's World and everyone else is just living in it. :D
|
I never had one in my life
|
only thing i miss is leaving at 5pm and not giving a flying fuck about any of it until the next work day

No way, no how, never, not for a minute!

I wouldn't give up the freedom to wake up at 9, or 11, or whenever ever ;)
|
No! The only good thing with working for someone else is that you doesn't need to care that much about how much the company makes, paperwork....
But I wouldn't stand working for someone else. Going up 7am, walking through snow to some building were I would stay for hours doing something I would hate... Fuck that! |
