I am mid-contract and there is not a huge amount of work remaining. For this reason and the fact that I have other work ongoing outside of the contract I want to drop from 5 days/week down to 3days/week.
What is the best way to go about suggesting this?
Obviously I could just ask directly, but the client is one who sees contractors as temp employees/bums on seats and might construe the request as evidence that I am not committed to the work and want out. Which is not the case. i.e. it might reduce still further the chances of her renewing me in 6 weeks time.
How can I suggest the change whilst remaining clear in my commitment to continuing to work for the client?
