Makes no difference. Its very rare a bussiness folds because one employee leaves, that applies to most of us.

If he's a mate you'll see him again, if he's a boss/work colleague and you've got nothing else in common you may never see him again you've simply moved on.

You'll find with ex colleagues that if you meet up with them after youve left, some you'll be bored shitless talking to because theyre living in the past and all they talk about is how things were (as opposed to interesting or amusing anecdotes) whereas with others you'll have a brief "hows so and so" or " hows work" then bin that and go onto the serious business of beer and errr beer.

Talk to him about it, tell him it's stressing you out but you don't want to leave him in the lurch. You never know, he might come up with a solution that suits you both.

Id second that... worth a try

If you do leave still a chance in the future you could go back if need be?

Umm, its because its a small family run haulage company but established & treats me like a son in some ways that i dont know how or when to tell him

Its the CSA that has caused all this really as before, the more i worked the more i earnt where as now

they just fleece me & i'm left with very little if anything

explain its not you cos you love your job ..... its the csa .... im fairly certain he will sympathise and try to help if its a good firm

When I last worked in London, loads of our drivers were self employed.
The insurance shouldn't be an issue. You can still be a named contractor with x years experiance with the firm etc.
It also seems to me this CSA mob need talking too aswell. Surely that percentage can be changed, as there's no way you should be working 75 hours a week

at those rates especially , it's ballocks.
Self employed is the way forward

Tax is er oh er what is it again er no I'll come back to that

If I choose to work a long week then that's my choice AND my money
