12 Things That Drive Freelancers Crazy

"I chose this lifestyle. I chose this lifestyle. I chose this lifestyle." The next time something gets under your skin, remember this: You could be stuck in an office.

1. Not getting regular email responses from the client you're dealing with...

2. ...but then being expected to drop everything at a moment's notice to take care of an edit.

3. Or getting a project that has an insane deadline, meeting it, and then having your client say the project got pushed back.

4. When a client expects that you can read their mind.

5. Figuring out how to get new clients regularly.

6. Being judged based on your age.

7. Having to justify your prices and haggle over money...

8. ...and never knowing when the next paycheck is a-coming.

9. Your taxes.

10. Doing a job you reallllllllllly don’t want to do, having bills to pay...

11. ...and deciding when it's OK to say "NO" to a project.

12. The most irritating thing of all: hearing your friends and family say you don’t have a real job.
