If they don't respond to emails, then I'm sure that since they publish their phone numbers they won't mind a callRing them up and tell them that you're Detective Inspector Smith, following up a complaint about possible fraud - I bet they'll speak to you sharpish after that!

Originally posted by DodgyAgentIn other words you were chucked off the contract "cos you was s***"
Still, at least I ended up screwing Abraxas good and proper and that's probably why they decided to give me a first anniversary present yesterday. It was about a year ago I was sourced for that role.Last edited by Denny; 13 December 2006, 19:28.Comment

Originally posted by DodgyAgentSorry to sound cruel Denny, but my reading of this is that Abraxas were told by the client who asked you "to engage in unethical behaviour" put your dismissal quite differently (rightly or wrongly) and the agency came away thinking that you are a bit of a knob. Given this the agency decided to take flight from you.
Given your obsession with calling things as you think they should be called (EB instead of agency or Brochure instead of CV) and your determination to go to the wire on some of the most trivial issues would suggest that you are a bit of nightmare to employ.
Pity more of you don't follow my lead.Comment
