I was a consultant at an international consulting firm. I stepped aside because I wanted to pursue my startup company, Future Delivery, full time. 9 months later, I love what I do, am working 3 times as hard as I did as a consultant, and am getting paid $0/hour. So to pay for the bills, I have started freelancing website design and development. Juggling the two has been extremely tough, but you gotta do what you gotta do. Since we're both members of BC, I want to invite you to my FD Career private beta: http://FDcareer.com Code: junloayza FD Career is a website where you can research companies and contribute by adding your comments about companies. This is a very early private beta, so you'll most likely encounter a lot of bugs. Throughout the summer, we'll be releasing more features like the FD RPG and FD Answers. Would love it if you tried it out, added your contributions, and gave me your feedback. Thanks Philippa! Look forward to hearing back. - Jun Hi Philippa,

I lived the same situation but the other way around when I stopped working as a freelancer to get a job in the translation agency Datawords (www.datawords-tranlation.co.uk). Today as a regular employee I have the same amount of problems but they're not the same as a few months ago. I totally agree with your post.
