    On this subject, a recent client's IT Security Manager insisted that I was a fixed-term employee therefore didn't need to go through the hurdles she normally insists on for third party suppliers. Even when I gave her my business card, told her that my contract was with the agency and I hadn't signed a single piece of paper holding me to confidentiality, she said that it was irrelevant as I was a fixed-term employee. She then denied my request for a long-term trusted supplier to be given a guest wifi log-in as it was a security risk in case they copied and sent confidential information!

    I gave up at that point and talked to my direct client manager who got me to sign a confidentiality agreement the same day.
