It always kills me when I run into some guy I worked with years ago, and they slip in the question..."So, what are you driving these days?"
The answer is "a hard bargain." Just baffle the hell out of them because that's so far from the shallow question they're asking. That's quite flip; an even better answer would be "a happy life." Live your life and make your choices so you can say that.
This is not an either/or deal. Do your best with small jobs and do your best with large jobs. You don't find happiness by deciding in advance what niche you're going to expand into, only to find you've instead painted yourself into it. Make yourself available for hang and bangs in between larger jobs; or vice versa if that's how you want to see it.
