Avoid the HQ

Any recent contractors in Newbury HQ, how you manage to park if you are working @ HQ.What are the options and how costly are those options.?
I have seen old messages, not seen anything new how contractors working in HQ are managing it..?
Vodafone HQ 2014:
Packed to the gunnels with people.
Virtually no hot desks if you haven't been allocated one.
No free coffee.
Bring your own coffee, milk, sugar and wait to use the kettle.
Can buy coffee at the Costas in the main building.
Other VF buildings? Absoluely fine. Loads of desks (hot or allocated), parking, canteen and free coffee all day long.
Hop on the free bus for meetings at the HQ.
I formed the impression VF were packing the HQ with graduates 'to make it feel like a groovy happening place'.
BS, it was a horrid working environment.
The HQ isn't what it used to be.Leave a comment:

Mind you, I'm not making any recommendations, just illustrating the feature.
If the OP has to come on here to ask about this stuff he may not be careful how he puts his coins in the envelope and carries them, possibly damaging the window.Leave a comment:

The £2 coin or the new 2X £1 or the pieces of silver could fall out if there was a window.
And he can easily scribble his reg number on the back of the envelope just in case he changes his car during the contract temporarily or permanently.
