I like being a consultant.

Prior to becoming one I discovered that .. I get bored easily and shitty management makes me change jobs (unless I get fired first for saying the wrong thing at the wrong time).

I work for a consulting company. They pay could be better but at least I get paid for the time that I spend instead of expected to put a "reasonable" amount of time per week no matter what the problem that I need to solve is.

Now I ask for a new assignment after a year or two and avoid having to look for work.

There seems to be a continuous need for people who can write embedded software..
