When I went freelance, it was hard not having a boss at first, now I'm totally into it. It took around a year for me to get everything to where I felt good about it. I think a lot of people don't realize that the uncomfortable feeling of not having a boss usually doesn't last forever. The people who liked working from home probably get it. We are taught to have bosses from a very early age.

Not having a more senior person to go to when you get stuck could be a problem.

I always have Mr. Stackoverflow as my senior person.

That is, until he slaps me in the face and tells me my questions are always repeated.

Also was a freelancer. I felt like I had more bosses. Instead of one person to keep happy it was an entire client staff to keep happy. I gave it up for a lot of reasons and went back to corporate.
