First Day of Self-employment
By Nick Hodge | July 31, 2006
About 21 years ago, before sitting my "final" exams I knew I had a full-time job. Thanks to Tim Kleemann now owner of Next Byte, the IT industry had sucked me in. January 6th, 1986. I was working for the man.
20 years on...and for the first time in my employable life, I am technically self-employed. Whilst my self-employment is by choice, but it's still weird.
Do I call myself if I am going to be late to the office?

Nick,
I remember the days when you used to come to our site (FH Faulding) and plug and play with our network. Tis wonderful (and a surprise) to accidently come across your website as the last time I saw you would have been in 1992. Hope you, Tim Kleeman, Mike Seyfang, Mike Crawford are all well.
I hope all is going well with the business.
