Wed 12 April 2006 - I’m going to be poor next month
I’m going to be poor next month. Such is the life of a contractor that you don’t get to claim for public holidays, and since I send in invoices monthly, April’s will be missing not only Good Friday, Easter Monday and ANZAC Day, but also today, as I’m at home convalescing.
Yesterday I found myself sneezing incessantly, something I initially thought was hayfever. After gulping down an antihistamine and noting the onset of a sore throat, it became obvious it wasn’t hayfever, and I decided to take today off.
On the upside, I’m not feeling too bad, and have got a few housey tidying things done. And I did join in a phone conference, so I won’t lose a whole day’s wages.
