1st contract this time around. About 8th total.Originally posted by northernladuk View PostAdvice from a person that is also still only in their first contract and was unable to research and understand the very basics of contracting. Nice.
I see MF's point and can also see that it works but I don't agree. Guess it comes down to work ethic. I like to be professional and do the best I can and be proud of my work/ethics. People taking the piss and getting away with it that then affects the way I am percieved or treated pisses me off royally. I am not comfortable shooting from the hip and acting like a cowboy, might cost me a bit due to lost rate increases but it makes me happy. There is of course many shades of grey here, it isn't as black and white as Mal V MF's point but there you go.Rhyddid i lofnod psychocandy!!!!Comment
