    Wouldnt reccommend even if the pay is good
    The good thingsEasy Jobs with good people to work with
    The challengesBosses. The politics you have to put up with being a \"contractor\" so you get all the jobs the \"badged\" works dont want to do because they are lazy and could absolutly get away with doing nothing all day because its easy.
