    Take the contract, get on the interview panel, get your mates to interview and turn the role down on the start date.

      Good God are you mental, then he'd be whinging about TWO clients in the same post!!!

            All aboard NLUKs bandwagon..... :-)



            To be fair to NLUK, he does jump in there first. You don't really have to blindly agree with everything he says.....

                I say take the contract. This is an excellent opportunity to show SY01 up, who had two offers a week ago and still hasn't managed to get either of them signed.

                  Or it could be they have formed their own opinion based on your posting history and even though many people are much more reserved than me you have managed to push them over the edge as well.

                    Maybe. But you've got to be fair there are lots of posts where you get in there first and its followed by your posse minutes later with either the exact same comment or
                    "I agree with NLUK"

                    Not having a go at you - its not you but it is a bit weird sometimes....

                      As ever you chose to blame everyone else rather than consider that you might actually be the problem. I am hardly Mr Popular on here and it pains alot of people to agree with me so that should tell you something.

                      You've made your bed and now it's time to quietly lie in it.
