Doing Nothing Beginning of Contract

[Brookster]

Trying to get the ball rolling but the ball won't move, I think my keenness is pissing off the other contractors.
Tried phoning non-existent boss - no answer. Still on full pay but I'm literally pissing myself off as my hands are tied.

Keeping being a keen basa or lay of the gas until management gets in contact?

Just be happy siting here doing nothing or keep pressing people until the ball moves?

I don't like getting cash for nothing.

What would you do...........

It's a changeover situation so politics are in play.

[eek]

Keep you head down and wait for things to appear. If politics are in play you're really going to annoy people by trying to be clever.

looks that way - well I tried i will just sit with my finger up my arse until i get some orders.

Do the honest thing and cut your time to 1 or 2 days a week and bill for the same until the work picks up. You will move straight to the contractor top of the class. Happy client. Sorted.

I doubt my 3 colleges would be happy with me cutting there pay . In all honesty I would do this in a heartbeat if it was just myself i had to worry about.

I don't work in IT guys so it's a different ball game.

Try getting used to it, while you can. You may get to like it.

Keep your head down, it's too early to be uber-helpful - the work will come.

Yeah there is three companies in play one being the company which lost the contract which I am on so they are not being very helpful (if there documents are in order).
Sitting here on the money I am on doing fck all is bothering me, then why you try to get things moving it won't !
Just being so easy to lay off contractors is part of the worry.......... though the company seem great and not axe wielders - they do need us in place.

I would question your suitability to contracting. My aim in life is to get money for nothing.
