Ahh yes, that's true - Medium I mean. I think you can argue that you're still self-employed with one employer, but it has to be demonstrable and tick certain boxes.
It does sound like your current situation with the chat bots is very good. You even had me wondering whether I would enjoy it - and if they wanted anyone else! Because I'm struggling to get enough work in, as usual. But I'm not sure it's my kind of thing really.
Glad to hear it's got you out of a hole financially as well. That's really good. Hopefully it'll continue and they'll have something else for you when it concludes.
So pleased it's working well for you though.
