Getting to interview while in a contract

[tractor]

...

Get your mum to write you a note.

I am down with the bubonic plague atm but your answer made me laugh so much I spilled my lemsip all over the dog. TY

I may well be looking at a 50-55% rate rise soon, but it's for another client, who given SC regs probably has quite strict rules about seeing people face to face before hiring.

That's not a given - some will want a face-to-face and some won't.

What excuses do you fellas come up with to take a morning/afternoon off for an interview??

I phoned up an explain I have been turned into a newt. When I come in the next day I explain that I got better.

Don't be so ridiculous. He can write it himself. Did you never go to school?

OP, here's a template letter you can use:

"Dear Mr <insert client name>

Gym Beast will not be able to attend work tomorrow morning, as he has a poorly tummy

Signed, my mum"

Don't bother and just say your dog ate the note.
