firing your agent

[timh]

Yeah, I'm not convinced by the interest argument either.

I think the reason they have to skim off more than we'd like is that, yes, it's not an efficient process (which is admittedly not helped by the agents themselves) - and they have to make enough dough to weather the dry periods, just as we do.

I think the reason they skim (ha!) off as as much as they actually do is that fancy cars and cocaine habits can get really really expensive.

OK, don't listen. I care less whether you undersand the reality or not, but since you can't even grasp the hugely complicated point that it is the agenct who finds the work and services the client and you're only there as the hired help, there no chance in hell you will even begin to grasp cost accouintancy.

Just stop banging on about peple spending your money - not that you've done anything to get the business that pays it - and we'll agree to differ, OK?

But when you go back to the agent and tell them you want more of your money, don't be surprised if he laughs at you.

You sound a little upset - relax, take it easy, maybe do a maths course.

And if you're working out how much the agent gets for how much work, remember to include all the leads he chases that go nowhere. It's all work wor him.

Nah, I'll stick with the five years I spent in Management Accountancy and a calculator.
