We know you do. Think of the benefits. She can't get up the duff! She could have the teeth optional mode. You can have a sly grope of her boobs under the desk while they are resting on her lap. When you want to finish her, all you have to do is creep up behind her and pop a bag of crisps!

Well if i do have a mid-life crisis I will be aiming at a lady in her mid-twenties (which will probably ensure that my mid-life crisis never occurs )

I was in a conference call yesterday when the bloke on the other end of the phone asked if I was a contractor. On an affirmative he then said to the whole room, "oh I think it's a mistake giving this piece of work to a contractor" to which I had to reply out loud 'It's lucky I have a thick skin isn't it'

and the moneys tulip.

He's right though. Come renewal, I aint renewing and they should have never given the work Im doing to a contractor!!!

So this client has worked you out as well, have they?

"I know I am being dense, but I can't understand what work couldn't be given to a contractor..."

Mission critical stuff. For example you wouldn't make your General leading the troops in a battlefield a Mercenary would you?

So stuff that if the person wasnt there you couldnt do or replace.

That sort of thing.

Thats a false comfort permies have. The whole "dont give that to a contractor" doesnt exist in the loggie world as people get head hunted left right and center and have no more loyalty than me. Its nice to see people think that just becuase they have a contract this will somehow stop them flicking two fingers to the wind when then get more $$$ for thier time.

Well, exactly, and if the permies have any brains they are getting 'mission critical work' documented / taught to permies surely !
