I generally agree with NLUK. I largely don't have a problem with being available until replaced by a permie, that's the general state of affairs, but where I really draw the line at is the mismanagment of the relationship.
If you let my contract lapse, you'll be lucky to see me renew.
Mess around with my invoices? Our relationship is now tainted.
I'd make a move. If possible, invoke where you'll be least affected by non-payment.Comment

Originally posted by moneymoney View PostI know, it's been slack, usually it gets to 3-4 and then they approve. There has been a bit of a re-org and I think they want to move the approver but that hasn't happened yet. I do want to make sure they are approved soon though.
Though I would have given them a warning the first time they had delayed by 2 weeks.
They have you over a barrel. I suggest you get the timesheets signed asap and give them notice explaining that their inability to sign the timesheets so they pay you on time makes them an unacceptable risk.
There is absolutely no need to bring up the new client or anything else."You’re just a bad memory who doesn’t know when to go away" JRComment
