    Contractor wisdom that you live by <one liners only>

    It would be useful to get some of the more experienced people lurking around here to share their knowledge. ( I am not one by far )

    <one liners> are easy to read. Humor is a plus as it makes it enjoyable to read and easier to assimilate.

    It seems that contracting is slowly becoming a dying breed(no surprise, writing was on the wall long time ago) as the employer class is trying to push more people further into the wage cage.(but if market does well, we all do well so we should encourage more sharing)

    One that I find frequently applies:

    "An agent with a role is like dog with a bone - if you do not hear about the role in the first 60s, there is no role"

      How is this a post for general? It is serious advice combined with humour. General is the wasteland.

      Are people set on whipping out forum?

        Every day is bonus day.


        The maxim of the braggart with zero social skills, a belief that £500 a day means they have won at life and no concept that their modest lifestyle has more to do with aggressive tax efficiencies than their own mediocre dev skills.

        Rarely heard these days due to IR35 and HMRC's pursuit of brazen piss takers.

          Have I got the hang of this?

          And yeah it should be in general as it's not a professional discussion.
