I'd be more interested in 2 or 3 day weeks, optionally up to 7.
And 100% remote.
I've been or still am self-employed and what I like about that is that I can work when I have the brainjuice to work and not work when I have no brain for it.
I do Go on the backend, Vue mostly on the front. Angular in the past. Some experiments with React and Svelte.
Sometimes I do classic websites (in Go).
Self-employed in Germany, but willing to give it up for the right employer, however I'm scared to do so. I value my freedom. I'm also 7 months in Germany 5 elsewhere, so 100% remote is required.
I don't really know what an employed work life looks like nowadays, tbh.
Isn't it time for a "who's hiring" on HN? Or when does that usually happen? It's the 2nd of May, beginning of the month.
Any tips for starting self-employment? Always dreamed of doing that, atleast for a while. But trying to find clients seems the most daunting. Also can you give some insight into your work schedule and coordinating that with clients(in terms of flexibility)? Thank you.
I did it out of necessity. There were no jobs and there was a market. I had the expertise. Nowadays it's all different.
I stopped working for other people about 9 years ago.
Things went well, 2 years ago my main source of income went away. So I've been trying to rebuild - or - find a job with similar freedom.
But the job part isn't working for me. I can't seem to bear authority.
