I have been in the same place for 2 years and I like it here. It is 25 minute drive from my house, they are flexible with their permies as they are with contractors (WFH etc.), they are starting to use some new and interesting technologies, there is no real politics and the manager could not care less about reviews etc.
I don't want to go through the circuit of applications, interviews etc. I have two young children and I do not want a long commute away from them, Mrs MUN still has issues with her foot and I do not seem to have the warchest building knack (still don't really have a proper one).
Essentially, I want stability even if I get less money for it. They are starting to hire permies in the team to replace me etc. and that made me realise.
On Monday (once the next 3 month renewal is signed) I am going to ask whether they are interested in taking me on as a permie at the end of it.
I am a little worried about tax implications etc. and how much my life is going to change with the drop in money but other than that I really don't think I want to keep doing this at the moment.
*sigh* it all looked so easy at first!
