Originally posted by Shackattack View PostGuys first of all thanks for your responses, some really good advise from all off you and honestly it's really made a difference, Kaiser yours stands out as it really hits the nail on the head. Also the one about going to a library strangely seems to resonate to name but a few.
Everyone thanks for your great advice, I think you are right look on the bright side, I think I've made the most of my time, I recently did a MSP and Scrum master course, ordered all the books which i still need to read through. I've hit the gym hard and even my brother who visited recently said I had gone through delardification, (Cheecky bugger, only brothers can get away that).
You can get a bit down especially when your fielding calls from recruiters who just seem to be professionals at wasting your time, you know the type, "Hello Mr Smith, I've just matched your CV with a couple of keywords like "the" and "and" and think you would be perfect for a job flower arranging in Plymouth for £1.50 an hour.."
Also I reckon I have sounded a bit desperate sometimes which I'm sure probably doesn't help, so top of my to do list is get to the library. Anyway seriously peeps thanks.Comment

This was the first time I'd walked out on a project, I just sensed a lot of trouble ahead. I since hear and seen they still haven't delivered some 18 months on.Comment

Gave up on contracting. I free-lance and consult now. its a lot more work. A lot of travel and networking at first. Now I have a steady clientele and work from home 80% of the time. And the big bonus is .... no agents!

Look just stop bed wetting and admit defeat. Then go and take some time off over Christmas when your current contract has finished and work out how to rebuild your career in a way that doesn't continually mess up your health..
