I was at the theatre last night with some friends, one of whom is a self-employed wedding planner, and she said that the real advantage is that she can fall (usually not literally, she clarified) out of bed and straight into work. In her pyjamas!
Or not, if it so takes your fancy, but this has already been discussed
elsewhere.
While
technically one or both of those options are available to me as an employed individual, I suspect either one might trigger a rapid change of status to 'unemployed'. Or possibly 'insane', leading to 'committed'.
On the other hand, I could probably then wear my pyjamas ALL THE TIME.....
