Get out....

[ribble]

Its bad but hypothetically speaking if one was to be offered a job at double the rate with all expenses paid how would you get out of you existing contract?

Tell the truth?
Lie and say you need an operation?

Problem there isn't anyone available I can currently substitute......

I assume you mean you can't find anybody properly qualified to sub.

If that's the case, put somebody sub-standard up. The client refuse to continue, and terminate the contract - job done...

offered a job at double the rate

I'd be kicking myself at my poor negotiation in my current role.

I got the role when the market was screwed.... This is a previously client who has got back in contact and wants to go direct....

No 4 week notice period or is the other contract immediate start?

Post it on JobServe or some similar site? You'll have to pay a bit but it sounds like 2 days at your new rate would cover this... you don't need to make a profit from your sub after all.

Or post the details on here. There are enough people on the bench.
