      On the bench for a week myself now, everythings sc/dv cleared work, I wish they would just drop the line "willing to go through clearance" on the adds and just say you must have clearance, would save me loads of waste phone calls.
      Trying to get a company to put me through clearance waiting on call back on interview. since it was yesterday I am assuming didn't get it

        Try and keep your chin up hun - things always work out in the end.

        This is the down side to what we do (which is why we are NOT employees!!!! ) - the uncertainty, the "am I ever going to find another gig" panic....you will though. Just keep looking.

          Thank SA, I know somethink will come along.

          Hate having to deal with the agent and time wasting, but if you want the money, you have to put up with the sh!t.

          I'm not one to sitting around the house, even for a week or two.

            You could try and beat my post count - that should keep you busy for a week or two

              I've only got a week left and nothing concrete yet, so Im starting to get edgy. I sway from thinking i'll be fine something will come up to "Im never going to get a contract again".

                I do too and I suspect we are not the only ones. Not to worry though, something always turns up.

                Some of the guys on here have had massive gaps and still found a contract. This is going back several months, maybe years, but I seem to recall ZG posting something about beeing out of contract for months and months.

                ZG - am I right??

                      KFC, Burger King, or Mac D's?

                      KFC for me, because I Kan't Fookin Cook!
