I've quit my 9 to 5 7
So I ended up quitting my nine to five job. In Denmark you have to give 30 days notice to the end of a calendar month, so I actually did it a couple of weeks ago, but I couldn’t write about until today for various reasons.
It became more and more difficult to do what I wanted to do next to a steady job, so it was time to go.
I will be starting freelancing again around Nov. 1. This suits my temprament more. I think it is more honest and transparent. This was my first perm job in more than 10 years and I wont be doing another one unless it is something I really believe in. You know a job with a mission at a company with a mission.
I do have a few things lined up mostly Java (unfortunately), I also aim to put a lot more time into my own projects. If you need an experienced rails freelancer please let me know and I’ll send you my CV/Resume.
Feel free to email me at pelleb@gmail.com or skype me at berserkertooth.
Thanks to everyone for your kind words and encouragements.

Good luck!
I’ve been lurking around on your blog for a while now. The first post I seem to remember was the list of principles for micro ventures, which made me bookmark your site straight away.
I hope your ventures take off!
Congrats and good luck!
Congrats, and may you succeed! I too have been following your blog, and I wish I had the courage to do what you’re doing.
Pelle – congratuations and good luck from me too (we met at Reboot). I know a guy who might need a Rails developer so I’ve given him your details. Hope it all works out for you – I’m sure it will.
Paul.
Good Luck! It seems to be the right time to do this sort of thing. :)
Congratulations from Finland! I also have been watching your blog and wish you: Good Luck!
Well Pelle, I think the greatest asset a person has is his time. Make the most out of it and take on projects that you want, or projects that you find interesting. Try not to get involved in projects that make your 9 to 5 look like a carnival of excitement cuz you will hate it and you will start to yearn the good ole paycheck. Good luck man!
