Who else did a doubletake when reading this post
- SkyPuncher 3y agoOh, that last line does read confusingly. Sounds like I’m saying I left the Bay Area. I just left my job. I don’t look forward to finding another remote one when I start looking again.
- jjav 3y agoI took a handful of years off to be home with the young kid, what a wonderful experience. Getting back to work later wasn't hard. What I did, and do recommend, is to do a little bit of consulting. I rarely did more than a few hours a week (and on some months nothing). But having a consulting company and a few real customers meant that companies saw me as legitimately self-employed (and I was, even if very low hours) instead of unemployed. (Did it make a difference? I don't know. But can't hurt.)
