Well, if you do contracts you're still your own boss
and as long as you hit the deliverables, you've pretty much got autonomy over the project.
You could always go in asking for the advertised rate and agree to come down a bit so you look accommodating.

I tend to no get bogged down with the financials until I've got an offer.
Unless I need to pitch for the work on the basis of price. It's normally more lucrative to wait until they've said 'no' to the other candidates before arguing over money!

Sounds fair enough.
You know your own market.

Not really.
Tell me about the one you're going to apply for.
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Wed 1 Feb 2012, 20:19, Reply)

It's part of the fundraising team for a local hospice charity.
A little bit of all the things I like, and it's only twenty something hours a week.
I'm a bit maudlin tonight, so I'll leave it till tomorrow to do the application.
