Yes it does, just a quick point though.Jsmc, Just try to remember mate, every time you work an extra hour now, it goes directly in your pocket. Nobody earns a cent from what you do, except you. You determine how far you go when you work. Nobody earns on your sweat.
If you work harder, you benefit, nobody else.If you decide not to go to work in the morning, it's up to you to stick the aggro. Nobody can lay you off. Your bank balance depends on your work, not on someone elses whim. You have stood on your own merrits and you take the rough with the smooth.and you are your boss. Some people will go to bed tomorrow not knowing if they have a job next Monday and if they will make the monthly payments on their AUDI next month or even their mortgage.
Alot of people are not sleeping at all because their next few months of their life depend on how they get on with their workmates. You determine where you go with your income. If that doesn't make you feel better mate, then it might be time to think about going back to work for someone else and hope it all goes well. Chin up mate, we are all in the same boat, and some periods get tough, that's why we earn what we earn.
Nobody said it was easy, just better than working for someone else.
