Working at risk

[LondonManc]

In the end extension came through 2 hours before the deadline. I declined politely as one hour earlier a new contract landed on my desk. Lower rate and further away, but really anything to get away from this place.
Starting tomorrow.

Well done, good luck and hopefully (but doubtful) another clientco will learn how to sort contracts out better.

Good timing then from your point of view....

Out of interest - how did current client react? Im betting they assumed you'd be staying and didnt even think that you might not leave.

Did you tell them the circumstances?
