    Congratulations on the new job Chris. Job security, health cover and pension can’t be underestimated. I was fortunate to have that my whole working life and that allowed me to be able to do the fun things, like music.

    Congratulations! It sounds like a fantastic opportunity. No need to apologize for the change in direction. Thanks for giving us a peak behind the curtain into the life of an audio engineer.

    Big props Chris. While I enjoy freelancing now (27 + autistic = least exhausting option for now!), I’m well aware that the reality of freelance work in the UK is also heading down a similar path, especially as a musician. What scares me more is the time spent learning a totally new skillset that would distract from practicing the skills I trained in, 😅 so even more props for your varied career!

    I just found your channel today. You are a talented individual, and it seems like you have a good head on your shoulders. Thank you for being so honest, open, and sincere in this video. I'm 31 and in a similar position, so you really gave me a lot to think about in terms of my own life and finances. Congratulations on the new job. I wish you all the best in prosperity, health, and happiness. ✌️

    Well Chris I`m glad we got to meet and work together at Dinbatz. I can't tell you how much I loved working with you at the Aldo's Wave & Infinite Loop parties. It's a pleasure to dj with such talent. Those parties run so well because of you. I`m glad you get to close out this chapter on the Aldo's Wave night on Thanksgiving Eve. What a talented and great guy you are. Best of luck !!! Bob Dooley

    Kinda surprised you had trouble gaining unemployment benefits during covid. I worked during that period cause was deemed essential but impression i had was free money for all if you werent working. Weirdly, Lots of people got rich during covid.

      In a shocking (sarcasm) turn of events, the government lied. A lot.
