    Turned up for first day at 9. Finished at 9:45 and sat in a coffee shop before I head home. Should be able to manage two days per week from home between the two contracts.

    I'm bricking it over my new role. Already had a sleepless night. Have sold by self for the almighty dollar, but if the shares shoot up over the next four years like my previous company I can literally retire in 4 years. Hope it doesn't kill me though.

    Keep telling myself, four more years.

    2 days is about right - that's what I'm looking for. Min £1000 per day.

    I was working a 3 day week quite happily. Then another 2 days work came along. What really causes the stress though is that another 2 days work as turned up.

    Still, I manage usually to squeeze it into 4 or 5 days of elapsed time. I don't do it for the money either - as one person's sig had it, I do it for shed loads of money.

    Not doing it for the money but don't want to turn the work down. Bye bye work life balance.
