    Well, that crunch time looming again.

    The other GOOD agency that covers this area has now sent out a mass email to her database.

    This really puts the pressure on me to accept.

    I really think that I am overpaid where I am, and most contracts these days for my skillset appear around the £200 to £250 daily mark, which is pro-rata about the £45K on offer.

    In negotiation with my current agent to get a 3 month renewal, then move onto permie. The 3 months will give me enough moolah to get myself a car in another year and pay for the hotel that I will need as my mid-week break from the road.

    The temptation of a reasonable salary and being able to leave work at 3pm is starting to get the better of me......

    Also very keen to see this HUGE project and culture change through to completion, should put me in an EXCELLENT position at the other end.

    Recession is looming, rates are dwindling.

    Yes, I was serious about the management drop-in timed sessions, all of that is part of the change challenges ahead of me!
    I wish you the very best of luck, but please please please MAKE A DECISION!!!
