    The rules of contracting

    As we are contractors, do any of you conform like a permie ? i.e. start at a set time, finish at a set time (perhaps 9-5) have to beg graciously for a day off etc ? or do you just come and go as you wish,

          I do most of my work direct with the client. He tells me what they would like and a deadline. I can do it whenever I like as long as it fits into the timeframe.

                  Bagpuss who is a Permie rule: If you have worked at 1 site > 18 months you are a Permie and should be treated with mistrust
                  The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

                  But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”
