    DOOM: Lost a contract

    Oh well. It was a 3 month contract that has lasted for 4 yrs and 3 months.
    Part time. Outside IR35. Paid for a house.

    Worth a banana for every £10k billed

    See You Next Tuesday

          As you billed over £400k and paid for a house, I'm not sending too many condolences LOL...

          Just as getting canned early is an occupational hazard, getting unexpected extensions is a bonus and one can only make the most of it. I had one client who I knew very well from my perm days ask me to come back 10 years later for a 2-3 month contract which ended up being 18 months over a two and a half year period. My current contract has just one day left but I've managed to eek out a six week piece of work into six months.

          Now the hard work starts to look for a new one!
