I hate taking orders.

I’m not good at being compliant. From the time I was very small. Told my kindergarten teacher to f-off and ran away from class.

30 years later, I found myself sitting on Santa Monica pier staring at the ocean, wondering if I had had my life’s fill of taking orders.

The Head of Product at my company had just given me an ultimatum.

Follow my orders or move on.

Ok dude, challenge accepted. I’m so outta here. But how?

I couldn’t really afford to quit and have no work, and even though I knew I could get another job, the 8-12 week interview cycle in tech was getting real old.

It has also become my continuous fall back plan.

Today’s issue is about how to find a full time job and turn it into a contract. Perfect if you could use a little padding in your pipeline this fall!
