Contractors need to be low maintenance, which means:
1- They get on with everyone, even if they hate them (Permies are allowed to be annoyed by people/slag them off, you aren't)
2- They don't moan about the place
3- They don't cause unrest by talking about money
4- They don't b1tch if they don't get invites to the pub/xmas bash/keiths leaving do
5- They don't have childcare/sickness/relative issues -leave them at home
6- They don't turn up later than agreed or leave on the dot if there is extra effort required.
Turn up, do the work as agreed, go home - repeat until end of contract and then consider options.
Yes, you get some flexibility over time but the basic principles stay the same.
Anyone who starts to think like a permie, messes things for the rest of us (e.g. some tw4t claiming employment rights on a long term contract means I will get 11 months max)
