Clocks go back... charge for the hour?

[eek]

Are you being paid to read this, SE ? If not then why not just foxtrot oscar andd leave people who don't mind reading questions about contracting issues to provide the answers ? Just asking, like...



Or you could ask a question on the contractoruk forums. That's what they're for.

No ask the company who is paying you what they are expecting to pay you and how to make it easy for them to do so.

Had the same this week so shifted the overtime hours to the day I left early to avoid the next level of management being asked questions by a confused finance department...

Why shouldn't I Boo?

You are not allowed to point out people aren't using their common sense or haven't you realised?

After all we are suppose to know exactly whether a particular client will pay for an extra hour or not.



Oh and for some reason the signature is Boo2 Wonder what happened to the first Boo....

Why shouldn't I Boo?

Because you neglect to use a comma to indicate a vocative role of the nominative case, and we can no longer tolerate such sloppiness. Please see below, and don't do it again.

I assumed he was asking why he shouldn't cry.

No, that would be "Why shouldn't I boo hoo?"

[Old Greg]

I assumed he was asking why he shouldn't cry.

It did cross my mind, but 'boo' is not a verb in standard English. It would also be crass capitalisation.

If we ignore the capitalisation, he could be using the Scots English verb 'boo' in the sense of 'stoop'. If we are to believe his missus and the supporting documentation to be found on various toilet walls in the Wigan area, this is his common working pose, so perhaps this is the real meaning.

I assumed he was asking why he shouldn't cry.

I thought he was asking why he should give an answer rather than just boo the question.

[aoxomoxoa]

I think on all the evidence we have thus far, he's clearly Not Cut Out To Be A Contractor
