By luring others into it? What are you, an agent? Contractors are meant to look out for each other. To quote Brick Top "It can get you in a lot of trouble, thinking, Errol, I shouldn't do so much of it."The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world that he didn't exist -

If you had to ask a bunch of contractors (in the general area as well!!! ) their opinion on an idea then maybe you weren't cut out anyway so don't fret about it.Originally posted by jub View PostDisappointed by the initial response

LHH do these (under the guise of "starting your own company"), was led by a contractor funnily enough.
I got it for free as part of a VR Outplacement package.. Was 2 days of fun and hilarity, 50% of course were welders/powder coaters etc, the other 50% IT contractors. Day rate discussions were less different than I would have thought :/Comment
