I'll be out of this full time nonsense next friday, and can't wait. I'll be full time in my own agency as of June 1 and have started ramping up with more marketing etc.
My motivations for doing so are numerous, but the biggest ones are in line wit what SecretPenguin said.
I worked for a design agency while in school and they did great work, but more than doing great work, they truely cared about design principles, they truely cared about learning, about their clients, and most of all, they truely cared about the impact that their work had on the end user. I've been fighting to get back to that environment for years, to no avail. So I will recreate it, and I will be successful.
In addition to that, I have 2 babies, and have been told a million times that you have much more fleibility (not more time off) when you are the boss.
Paper work is not going to kill me, sitting at this BS dead-end design job will.
