The key is finding a gig that excites you, I have turned down many higher paid contracts for noddy BAU type work, adding capacity to an already over stretched team.
Being a contractor means you get to choose the project you want, so id you're bored its your own fault
(PS Mods can this be moved to general to get a "broader" response)Originally posted by Stevie Wonder BoyI can't see any way to do it can you please advise?
I want my account deleted and all of my information removed, I want to invoke my right to be forgotten.Comment

It's your life. Stop moaning and do something else with it.Originally posted by oliverson View PostAnybody else bored of sitting in front of a computer all day? The soul destroying pointlessness of it all, selling your life away day by day. MONEY IS NOT ENOUGH!
Personally I enjoy it. Love coding, love IT. The fact that I have been well rewarded over the last couple of decades is a happy by-product.Comment
