parity agency sound like cheap asses

[trsisko]

yes I just had the impression the guy was trying to skank me, I sensed a gulp in his voicebox when discussing the rate, so lol anyway they are cheap bastards dealt with them before.

Also another agency onces me to sign up with them take my passport/qualifications down to their base and give 2 references.

whats your opinion on that.....

You havent asked for a termination clause then! Im with parity and I didnt have a termination clause when I started the current contract. But then I decidedI wanted one so told them so at the next renewal. They agreed.

True they are cheapskates but they arent on high margins though. They are on about 7% with me.

I'm surprised and impressed you could read that.

I asked for the "no termination clause" to be removed and they refused. They said it was client policy. I was the only one at ClientCo with 'no termination clause'.

Necer had any problems with them - always paid on time but I too had to get the 4 week clause in.
Anyway, for your own good - Parity would only stick this on you if you're:
a) on a really crap rate.
b) a crap negotiator.

Shoot the messenger if you want, but do yourself a favour and "grow some" before the next renewal. That doesn't mean hissy fits - it means standing your ground on things you know you will win. 4 weeks is one of them, (increase maybe?)

Quite frankly I'd love to respond but I can't quite understand whay you are on about.

I'm new around here and should probably keep my mouth shut, but I can't.

The amount of spelling and grammar mistakes in this thread is quite staggering. You guys are supposed to be the cream of the crop, and yet you can't string a coherent sentence together.

Is this what our education system has come to?

Yes - I agree

One grammar pitfall in English is the misuse of the words “amount” and “number” when referring to the quantity of a particular thing.

That's a pretty tame mistake compared to the above posts, but still slightly embarrassing.
