Yes.
Accepted a contract during a bit of a downturn about eight years or so ago after going through the costs very, very carefully. The role way away from home and not very high a rate. £200 per day I think.
Stuck it out for 4 months but the contract was actually costing me money.
It was a strange 12 hour shift thing where there was lots of time off.
Decided to abandon ship due to the costs issues one month before the end.
Have not regretted it as it was just financially crazy but thought that I could make it work but I couldn't.
Left another contract when due to renew as the rate was (low: £250) after requesting an increase.
Client not really bothered as only 25% of the people there did any work anyway.
I was one of the "workers" but the client was not bothered.
