Help is at hand if you want it
HI. As i am attempting to get back into the IT industry after several years looking after my children (which i still do), I am willing to assist anybody in anyway I can. In your case, I could assist you either on site or/and from my home with regards to the Project management/admin stuff. You will be very suprised in the rate I can offer to support your business over the next six months of your contract. call me on 07976691298 or email me at daviddac@aol.co.uk.Originally posted by skiboy View PostHi,
I am currently six months into a year long contract with a publicly funded UK group. The contact role was originally pitched as being based around hands-on Windows Sever work but I have since been charged with project managing the implementation of a new email system.
Whilst the project management experience will look good on my CV it is taking an exorbitant amount of time to get anywhere due to the internal politics involved and I am finding myself spending most of my days sitting around doing nothing which after several months is driving me insane. Given the opportunity (and if anyone bothered listening to me!) I could have had the entire project easily completed by now.
Having discussed this with the management they can't find me anything else to do of any value and I'm considering the possibility moving on.
I was wondering if anyone had any comments?Comment
