If you're going to start posting every random thought and every tiny event in your life, then post it in General.

Well for some reason a few people treat this place like it's some Faceache or Twatter clone, they have no concept that the rest of the world doesn't care much if they failed to steal another oxygen molecule. Posting in the professional sections they feel the responses to constant dribble will be more muted.
I can see why more than a few people have stated that SY01 and Psychocandy are one and the same person.

What do you mean, if?

No, it's worse. On those platforms you get to choose whose dribble you're interested in.

Precisely, that's why people get annoyed by the behaviour and it's why I suspect a fairly large number have Wilmslow/SY01/Psychocandy on ignore. Not that I'm implying they're the same person of course, the CUK authorities would have prevented that happening!.
The same ignore function which is effectively knobbled by the quote functionality of course.

Hmmm. Obvious thing to be concerned about is if I sign up for this, then advise current client that I dont wish to extend, its all going to go wrong if it then gets pulled before start date.

Then I'm in the piss poor situation of begging current client to please let me extend after all which would not be cool....

Same rate, MUCH closer to home. But of course the grass isn't always greener....

Obviously don't tell your current client until much nearer the date. Don't advise them until you receive the new contract for signing.

If it falls through, the current client might still extend if they haven't already put loads of time and money into finding a replacement.

God forbid that a forum is used for discussing things. Perhaps we should just never post and just look at it sweetly.

And how many times - no-one forces you to read every post honestly...

There's discussing things, and posting every single thing that happens to you.

Anyway, good luck with the gig or extension, whichever you pursue.

PC - Here's a hug from me

Does it feel any better now?
