Have you lost a contract cos they didnt like your personality?

[MarillionFan]

Did you get a rate increase to teach them a lesson?

Actually I did. Twice :-)

Past performance is no indicator or current or future performance

Good point. I'll ammend:

Past positive performance is no indicator or current or future performance - just becaus someone has taken you back doesn't mean that this client didn't terminate you because you';re crap.

Man up and move on.

If you can confidently measure your performance against the yardstick of recruiters' evaluation, then I would say you've got this contracting business cracked.

Most contractors know how good they are after a few years experience. I am confident in my abilities. Sadly there are any number of reasons in contracting land you can get released unrelated to performance.

Met plenty that thought they were good, the reality being massively different

I've figured it out. All makes sense.
At a university...
Showered that day...
Wearing deodorant...

Clearly a strangely clean smell that the plaintiff wasn't used to among 5000 unwashed undergraduates.

I have a huge personality.

Is that like when people declare themselves to be "Crazy" and "Wacky"?

More like girls on lonely hearts columns:
Athletic - no tits
Big personality - appetite to match
