That's what people on those stupid tv shows say all the time, well, now it's my turn. I'm stuck in an interesting one - got offered a contract, accepted, started working. Initially (inbetween accepting and starting) there were some uncertainties about invoicing, as this was supposed to be an international gig, so potential for many taxmen with sticky hands
Agent knew nothing and was worried about everything, I was trying to find a acceptable solution, but then the starting day came, agent made some aggreement witht the client and told me "you can work directly with them now, under any scheme they find acceptable", and (probably) went to the pub to celebrate.
Now I'm almost a month in, but have no written contract or any sort of paperwork with the client. They are a pretty big software house, seem legit for that matter, nice clients etc, and are totally cool about it - when I asked about it a couple of times, it was "don't worry, mate, HR is working on this". I think eventually papers will be produced, signed, monies paid, at the moment I find this whole thing to be more amusing than anything else. Agents and clients have been lax about signatures more than once before, just never that lax yet, I suppose live and learn.
So, dear comrades - have you heard of something like this, maybe happened to you too? Share your stories and comment!
