Interesting thread. Like some of you know, I went through a kidney transplant last year. For the past 5 years I've had the same job (computer related) and to be honest I was SICK about it.....Never got to use any of my creative skills and to get a promotion I would have to relocated, most likely abroad. When my kidneys started to fail, I had to stop working becaus I had to go to dialysis almost every day. In this period I started developing a new website with some unique ideas. It was great to finally get to decide to do with most of my days. Even though I had the kidney problems, a forthcoming transplantation and daily dialysis sessions, I thought life was great. A year after I had to stop working, I was ready to get back to work again. I was actualy looking forward to this. Been a year away and thought that it would be great to get back to work...How wrong I was....Iworked for about 3 days when I got that same feeling I had before.....then one that I REALLY did not want to do this any more....I actually woke up every morning, not wanting to go to work....So I decided...to hell with it, and started up my own company. Almost a year since I did that, and I am soon ready to launch a new, national website where I live. I've gotten a lot of praise for the things I have developed and I am now in the middle of applying for finances from different funds and investors. Already got about $7000 to set up my own office space and buy computers and office equipment, so things are looking good....And I'm really happy with my new boss...Myself
