How easy is to Freelance Big Companies?

Thinking of becoming a One...
Do you mean being a freelancer, contracting at big companies?

It's very hard if not impossible here if you are talking about TRUE freelancing - where you are representing your own self on what we could call a 1099 tax status (or something like that) here.

On the other hand, the big companies (I'm thinking of major banks, hospitals, tech companies) DO hire MANY contractors, but those contractors are going through a Staffing firm, not out there on their own.

I'm estimating something like 40-60% of most tech jobs here are contracting at first at least. But not just a guy off the street who comes in with his own contract.
 
The worst, especially on technical sites like this, is when someone feels the pedantic need to point out inconsequential errors that neither correct nor clarify anything and add nothing to the conversation other than showing that the poster geniusly spotted something out of place.

As long as it is inconsequential I agree with you, but sometimes I just cannot resist, so I sympathize with those who do.

My least favorite is Fields instead of Columns, in the context of a Table. Yes, yes, yes, I know...Microsoft calls them Fields in the Access world., foolishly.

Okay. Understood.
