    I left a client in 2000; after I left agency X took over all the contracts. In the process they shafted everyone (except me as I had just left) including the team I had recruited. I was furious and felt I would NEVER use them myself.

    My last short gig was with that same agency X. It was a good gig and made me £40,000.

    I bear grudges in my personal life, but contracting is business. Provided the agency is not breaking the law, it appears I have a price and will do business with them.

    Should I have sat on the bench instead? If so, how do I explain that to Her Ladyship?

    Tricky, innit?

      Years ago ( about 10 ) there was a website that you could rate Agents on . However it had to be shut down as once it became popular a few agents objected & threatened legal action , plus results became skewed by bogus input .
      So good idea but hugely difficult to actually put into place with any reasonable level of usefullness.

          Not that I would suggest any of you lovely people are like this, but there is a certain person posting on these boards who has a somewhat rose tinted view of his own communication skills, who would probably put my lot on the blacklist for taking umbrage at receiving EMAILS ALL IN CAPITALS THAT LOOK LIKE THEY'RE WRITTEN BY AN ANGRY BASEMENT DWELLING TEENAGER, blaming us for his timesheet not being authorised by the client.
