Gino Avila IVEver wake up one day and decided you’re not going on a 3 hour-commute to your day job? Everyone can relate, and who can argue? Some workers prefer more experience and flexibility that freelancing can offer. But before you jump the gun, get educated on some things. Good thing we listed some popular things that freelancers deal with.
Here are 3 perks and irks of a freelancer:
#3. FREEDOM, BUT IS IT REALLY?
PERK: MY TIME, MY RULES
You set your time. You can choose to wake up late, and work on your projects late. You command your time and be as flexible as you want. But…
IRK: DEADLINES
Yeah, flexitime is good and all, but this is sometimes a double-edge sword; you may think you’re setting your time, but sometimes your deadlines are setting you. Goodbye 9-5 office hours, and hello, ‘Mr. It’s Already 4AM but I Need to Meet this Deadline, but at least I Get to Work at Home All the Time.’
