My £400 a day contract gives me 65k + takehome, how can a 70k permie job compare?The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.
But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”Comment

Oddly, when I first started contracting I would have voted to stay with the permanent job.
But, now that I've been doing it for a while, I realise that it would take a lot more than this to tempt me to give up the freedom and flexibility thing that you get with contracting.
Money's still better (just) if you're on 400/day anyway.Comment
