    the timing for them couldnt be better as this phase is completing this week, and the next one doesnt start until post xmas...

    My relationship manager is a great guy and also a contractor so I think he'll get it.
    I didn't say it was your ******* fault, I said I was blaming you!

      Unlikely but possible if anything turns up in the near future.

      CV Updated, Jobserve activated, Pet agents contacted directly. For now I wait.

        I did this once when I got a call from a previous client who wanted me back. There were some issues in the role I was currently on so I gave my notice and started on the new role.

          Most of the time the people working at these companies memory is quite short. If they are annoyed initially they will (most of the time) forgive and forget. So just chill out and take life easy.

            Their memory is particularly short when they are desperate for a project resource and you're the best option they have on the table.
