    Yeah, but I haven't hit my number yet. I'd like to hit my number then do the shop. Until I hit the number I'd still work.

    You know what they say about assumptions!

          Sigh.

          I never wanted to do this job in the first place. I wanted to be a lumberjack

            You're a permie. Go see your GP, explain how they have burnt you out, and get signed off with depression.

            On full pay, kick back and relax, and in the background find another job/contract.

            Simples.

              Delegate all your important decisions to the fabulous new contractor you just hired and sit back while everything runs smoothly.

              p.s. you can probably get Suity for £20 / hour.

                Only if you can get him to turn up for an interview at the right time.
