Good points, especially #3. It's hard for some people to understand that even though you're at home instead of an office, you actually are working!

You forgot to mention that we also have the option of firing anyone of our many bosses without really losing 'a job'. I think I'd be homeless if I didn't work for myself because I hate having to answer to other people for my time.

Great article!

Our clients are definitely our bosses :) Another great point you raised - family and friends don't understand you're actually working. They believe that, just because someone is not stuck in an office working for "the man" is not working "for real".

It gets annoying pretty fast!
