It seems I only come back to LJ when I am in crisis; I wrote thispost this morning as I have had enough time and experience in London to recognize how out of place I feel most of the time, even though I have lived here for several years now.

Hi all, I recently started a new position where I work from home... since I can log in anywhere I feel like, an idea popped up that perhaps I could move abroad and work. I remember that England had something on the books about not being allowed to work independently, but technically I'd be telecommuting back to the US. Does anyone have experience ( Read more... )
