I'm a freelancer, currently doing work for one boss whom I'm finding really difficult.
Aside from his peculiar personality, which I tolerate, I'm finding him increasingly rude and abrupt. I don't know if it's just a personality clash or whether he's deliberately trying to make life difficult. He's always worked on his own, and I think has no idea how to manage people and leaves me to my own devices, unless he feels like intervening (which he does, occasionally). Clients think he's great m- but they don't have to work with him!!
I won't go into more detail here but the question I keep going over is this: do I keep going (I love the work, and it's an indefinite contract) while being quite unhappy in the workplace, or do I quit, knowing that I then have no guaranteed income at all (currently doing between 3/4 days a week). My DS will be doing GSCEs next year and will need support from me so I might leave in a year's time anyway, but some days I just don't know whether I can stand my employer for even another day, let alone another year.
Has anyone had a similar experience, and what did you do about it? Thank you.
