Every time I try to start working in IT I get distracted by stupid Brexit arguments on CUK and end up getting nothing done.
So yes, if anyone has any tips on how to start working, I'd appreciate it too.Will work inside IR35. Or for food.Comment

Dunno about the rest of you but IT was a hobby that became a career. What does that mean? Self skilled because I had a passion for it which by accident lead to doing jobs for small businesses via word of mouth then soon after firing off a CV to agencies which resulted in decades of contract work.
Nothing's changed, still feels like a hobby and self skilling never stops, yeah sad basturt with no life
