Cant exactly predict the health of family members can I? Or are you saying I should check family members health before taking on any contracts?
In this situation, you have a choice of either- Leave the contract and spend time at home
- Stay in the contract, man up and stop whining
- Stay in the contract and keep bleating
- Stay in the contract, discuss the situation with the client, and arrange cover
The best of these is the last. A number of people have suggested this, and every time has come back with a whinge about how it's not that easy, or money doesn't buy everything...
The next best is to leave the contract, which is what I would have done.
The worst options are to keep moaning that you aren't getting the answer that you want here.Comment
