    Bearing in mind that this board is supposedly for intelligent debate Denny, I will bow to your superior intelligence and give you the opportunity to display your talent. So instead of resorting to insulting behaviour (something that I of course would not do ) perhaps you can give us examples of some of the instances of client and agency behaviour that so upsets you.

    Now I know that I am not very bright, and that obviously I am getting ripped off by agents. However I like to think that I am pretty streetwise and I reckon that I can head off agency/client problems at the pass.

    I may be wrong but someone of your intellect will no doubt be able to offer me enlightenment. After all we should both be on the same side.

      Read my past posts. There's plenty of examples on these. My 'helpful advice' thread which effectively makes me the Anna Raeburn of contracting wisdom also alludes to the issues I find so reprehensible from clients and recruiters.

      Oh, I forgot. You are probably incapable of gaining insights from such a long post, which is probably a struggle for someone of your inferior intellect. Perhaps when you've managed to read the entire Janet and John series unaided by mummy or teacher you might be able to do this yourself in good time.

      By the way, 'alludes' means 'makes reference to' in case you didn't know.

        You seem to have gone to an awful lot of trouble to investigate this whole thing. Couple of questions:

        How do you find time for working (assuming you do work)?
        What specific experiences have you had? (No need to name names)

        We dont want people to think you are just an armchair arrogant big head now do we?

          I write most of the time, as well as contract in a change management capacity. I also type bloody fast and know what I want I want to write so I don't labour that long over these posts trying to think and research what I want to say and then typing it all out using only two fingers.

          That long 'Helpful Advice' post was mainly cut and paste from previous writing and the rest typed at lightening speed. It took about 15 minutes in total.

          I'm not called trigger fingers for nothing.

            Again, that is totally incorrect and displays your considerable ignorance still further.

            I am a OFFICE CHAIR arrogant big head.

              A little learning is a dangerous thing; drink deep, or taste not the Pierian spring: there shallow draughts intoxicate the brain, and drinking largely sobers us again."

              Any idea what that means Denny?

                      Have you thought of trying to synchronise your fingers with your brain?
