Implications of not joining a contract?

Thanks everyone

I am not doing that but was just wondering what is the worse that can happen if anyone does that.


I just turned down a role which was 11% more than my current rate.

Don't lose any sleep over it. Gigs can evaporate before you start leaving you with nothing. It could also fold a few weeks after you started leaving you in the same boat. 11% isn't really enough to warrant the risk in many cases. Only needs a couple of days delay or the whole gig folding to make a strategy of jumping at every 10% look a bit poor.

Agreed, thats why turned it down.
