have first contract offer but

[ementalo]

It's just a bit of reassurance for me really...this place is nothing like netmums is it.

What has 'netmums' got to do with your questions?

She is implying we are not all warm and cuddly and supporting our gender against the world like netmums. Instead we are a bit sharp to give critique and ask questions on business type questions someone going contracting should or be able to research before they get in to it. This is a fair question though, agents do take a bit of getting used to.

Ah I see, that's why she is banging the pc...

Think I'll exit this one.

As this is the OH's first contract, accept it at the £10 lower rate and look again in 6 months time. Unless OH can afford to be choosy. And btw - don't mess with Netmums...

What are cojones?

Ask your mother.

[northernladuk]

Ask your mother.

She will tell me they are kahunas

[Wanderer]

She will tell me they are kahunas

So you will know you are in trouble when she tells you that there is a "big kahuna burger" for your dinner then.

I am never going to say that word again with that picture in mind!!

Hate all those abbreviations used in Netmums etc OH, DO, DH, DS, etc etc. Why not just use good old "husband".

Back to the main point, if your husband had some balls he should have said no and the agent would be back accepting that it was a piss take on his part. They tend to do this to first time contractors.
