....the accounts department at a client pack up for Christmas and don't settle your invoice? Then when you try explaining it to them they don't seem to be able to understand how they arrange their holiday cover isn't really your concern and they signed up to a contract to pay within a month.

Yep. Love it even more when they only have one pay run in the week and it happens to be on the day you're chasing so you've missed the deadline for having it processed. -
Invoice payment delayed, how cute.
I can't even raise the invoice until the timesheet for week running up to crimbo is approved by client and my 'handler' at client isn't back until later in the week having had two weeks off.
Bloody permie holidays.
Though I blame the schools for keeping the kids off beyond today. No reason for it.
Maybe tomorrow, I'll want to settle down. Until tomorrow, I'll just keep moving on.Comment
