              Was out for 2 weeks and got 3 offers - all remote. Took one of the 2 that was outside. The inside one was an eye watering rate too but too much hassle.
              Never seen the market so buoyant.

                      How's the contracting market now guys and girls?

                      My wfh Inside gig is about to end but clientco wants to offer a 2 months extension.
                      The only thing that nags me is this contract has a 4 weeks notice period and they want to carry this on for the renewal too!
