    I’m self-employed. As such the idea of day on/off work can get really messy for me; some days I work a single hour and then drink booze, some days I work 16h straight. It depends on work availability + my mood.

    Days when I don’t work at all typically involve cooking, taking care of my pets, napping, watching anime, reading some random junk.

      What do you do for self-employment? I’ve always thought that being self employed would be awesome.

        Translation; mostly between Portuguese, Italian, English.

        Self-employment is a bit of a mixed blessing. It requires some discipline handling time and money, as well as flexibility - dealing with the fact that some months you’ll get barely any income, and in others you’ll feel overworked as fuck. You won’t deal with a shitty boss, but with a plethora of shitty clients (and some really great ones).
