Annie, I'm glad I read this (by the way are you from Auburn NY? I went to Skaneateles last year because I loved the name and the place is gorgeous!!)
Anyway, I work at about 9 cleaning jobs and consider myself self-employed. No one takes taxes out and I have no insurance, but I pay my taxes quarterly. I was offered a job interview for the state of NH mental hospital in housekeeping and I have never worked full time, I'm afraid I would really hate this but I would get the benefits. The interview didn't take place yet because of a slowdown in getting the application to the dept. (their problem, it has to be approved). I would like to go with my gut but what if I am turning down something that I may need later?
I love my schedule as it is but hate the dealing with taxes and if I break a leg I could be stuck with a wicked expense.
So I could wait and see what else is out there or take this if it comes. Hope yours works out. I have only done cleaning but feel that I could do something in a library or office. (Can't remember a face, but I never forget a name. 'cause I can spell Skaneateles!)
