Told off on my first day...

[Wilmslow]

New client is obsessed with the safety elves – When walking upstairs I was pulled over about the importance of holding onto the germ infested handrail.

Not allowed to park on site as a contractor, which is a real pain as the only option is the local Virgin station – at £9 a day, assuming I can get a space as the carpark fills up very early in the day.

Oh, and a nice 9am scrum I cannot be late for, with no other means of parking locally I may just need to take the train daily, as I am darned if I am paying £45 a week just to park on top of the hotel costs - would get me home every day at least.

Where were your hands, deep in your pockets, playing "pocket billiards"?

[AJ1982]

A fellow contractor where I work only just twisted his foot on the stairs an hour or two ago, so it is for your own safety. Oh and make sure you look both ways when crossing the street on the way to/from your current client.

Oh, and don't forget to chew properly and swallow. This information is probably on their Intranet if you need further clarification.

Alternatively, you could just tell them to F off.

Ahh..I've had this happen couple of times at different clientco's. Being told off by security staff when walking up & down the stairs to hold the handrail !!

FTFY

Being told off by security staff for struggling, when they are trying to forcibly exit me, for good, from the building !!

Look on the bright side - it's not like your client found your posting history and fired you.

But am sure we'll be opening betting on when it will happen fairly soon.

If they but knew your neighbours are mafia hoodlums, they'd realise that risking tumbling down the stairs is the least of your problems
