      Then, I have the BA who said you do not need to state what columns you want in a reporting BRD.
      I do hope you informed them, as any true contractor would: never, ever write anything down.

            personally I think now is a terrible time to go contracting......I honestly would recommend anyone with a permie job to stick at it, or just look for another permie job....

            the market is really tough and the rates have declined in general, and G Osbourne is determined to kill off the contractor market, people that just jump without looking at this from all angles and have a decent bit of savings behind will be going into a world of hurt IMO...

              Yes, you are indeed correct.

              You wouldn't believe how many IT bods don't know how to use it.
