How stupid are agents?!!!

And if that was the case would anyone with a wife/husband/partner/whatever have to declare it on the P11D as well?

No, because it was a cost wholly incurred because of being away on business.

If you were at home with your whatever you wouldn't have incurred the cost.

My brolly gives me a dispensation of £150 per night for this kind of thing and I don't need the receipt.

I've just been tapped up for
a) a permy job
which is
b) based 300 miles away from my home
and more to the point, is
c) part of a "contractor replacement scheme"!!!

Fujitsu are aparently trying to replace all their contractors in one fell swoop with permies. Does anyone know anythgi abou this?
Fair play to them if its true like, but are agents really that stupid to appraoch contractors for these positions?!!!

I despair sometimes, I really do!

A good one occurred at a well known Co I worked for when the managers got paid a bonus for succesfully getting rid of contractors as part of a "contractor replacement scheme"!!! by replacing them with consultancy people at double the daily rate !
