OT advice sought re going self employed

Despite keeping everything crossed and putting off another job for a week it turns out that because I live more than 7 miles away from the office I'm not suitable [emoji35][emoji35][emoji35][emoji35][emoji35]
Why bother speaking to me when they knew all along where I live?
At least I've got a job to start tomorrow.

That's harsh, did they want you to walk to work?
Good luck with your new job.

Time to name and shame me thinks.

No need at all, the joys of a small firm with very little experience of hiring. One of those things although I'm pretty impressed to get 5 job offers from 7 interviews in 3 weeks tbh.

What about having a business account. Is it worth it?

Easier for tax purposes I suppose but then they charge for transactions etc.

Better to just use a current account??

Natwest dont charge for transactions, in any case all business bank charges and interest is deductible so yes its worth having a business account but not essential

Even though they are deductible you still have to pay them and only get 20% or 40% back as the tax reduction.

I can't believe its just over a year.....

Ended up going into a motor factor as a sales advisor, 12 months 3 payrises and promotion to sales manager in May.

My ex has been drip feeding nonsense to my son who I haven't seen for 6 months now which is the hardest thing but I have the support of the new woman in my life.

So hello again I'm back
