Morning all,
New to the site – bored in new contract so been surfing – been contracting for 7+ years SQL/Crystal/Analysis etc – started a new contract on a good rate but long commute 5 weeks ago. The ‘manager’ doesn’t speak, not given any work etc etc, . Permies ignorant. Idiot I’m supposed to be helping hasn’t spoken to me.
As a contractor been in some pretty hostile environments to say the least but this is something else!!
My current strategy to smile and show an indifferent front, after all the fools are paying me for doing nothing. And if anyone tries anything on I’ll hit hard (unfortunately had to adopt some rather rough ‘stitch up’ tactics on one contract in particular when the going got tough i.e. bullying).
Any thoughts or ideas anyone?
Have a good day.
