“If I can make it there, I’ll make it anywhere” is quite a dare. I never tried New York as an adult. I can’t quite give up on the Bay Area, though.
Queen Anne, Seattle, seemed more a bubble than San Francisco ever did.

Like many people of my generation (“X”), I’ve held a lot of jobs and worked a lot of gigs. The way that various terms are used to describe non-employee work get distorted, in my opinion – usually to the disadvantage of the worker.
How I see it: the words aren’t important; watch out for the terms of engagement.
- Will you be handed independent tasks to complete, or will you be expected to participate in team processes?
- Are you measured in terms of results or activities?
- Do you answer to someone who acts like your boss, or is your contact more like a customer/peer?
