I've got a Job, and I don't want it!

[Browser]

I initially said similar to the OP as I took a job 400mile south of my home (a bit of a long commute) and on less money than I was on 5 years ago but your argument won out and I have actually settled into the job and I'm quite liking it.

And that's despite it being in Peterborough, impressive!

Pottyboro isn't that bad, its worse
I've only been to Crowland once, it looks a nice place, a bit flat for me but nice nontheless.

It is a nice place, has it's share of chavs, eejits youngsters (and oldsters) driving too fast etc but is nice still. We've been there 12 years and have no intention of shifting yet.

I too am self employed - a freelance with (in the main) one big client whom I have had for 16 years now - and I too am growing weary of the constant uncertainty and the unending feast-famine oscillation (particularly now that I appear to be drifting into a famine phase)

What if anything do you propose to do about it?

Attacking it on several fronts - firstly, and most immediately, lining up another assignment as quickly as possible. In the longer term, looking at doing book projects and re-launching my photography career. I am also about to start in a kind of cool and hopefully (eventually) remunerative project with my brother in the Caribbean.

Sounds like you've got a plan.
