Leicestershire County Council??

[aj1977]

Anyone contracted for them in the past or currently with them? Rates seems pretty Steep

[Sockpuppet]

I used to work for them as a tour guide at Bosworth Battledfield.

Not that you really want to know that.

Not contracted, but I wrote an Oracle training course for them a few years back.

I once drove past their buildings on the way to somewhere more interesting

HTH

Of course their rates are steep - they pay from the taxes of the hard working middle classes, and don't have to answer to anyone on why they waste so much of this money.

But if you work there you can pretend that you work at Stingray Central

I meant steep as in very Low

You think they're bad, try Leicester City Council

Did a stint there a few years ago. Never again... it all went downhill after the head of department went on a basic DreamWeaver course, and couldn't understand why a database-driven Ajax application (although we didn't call it Ajax then) might take a little longer than building two pages about kittens and knitting

Marineville! Apparently it submerges and turns into a car park at weekends.

Public sector is probably the safest place to be right now....
