No1 reason for me to work for myself is not to have a boss or PDR crap.
Modern HR has created a paternalistic/materialistic environment. "Restroom break boss". Seriously you need permission to pee, or when to take some leave, or authorisation training, or have a meeting with someone. You are treated like a kid.
