Just had my 3rd payslip. Deductions (tax/NI) are 48% of the gross. I guess Mr Taxman has caught up with me. Boo hoo.

No it doesnt. Being permie is great. Keep up the good work. Less competition for us contractors.

Permies don't know what work is.

A daily rate of £650.97 seems rather precise...

No, she only worked 3 days. And she hated every minute!

I'm invoicing for just over £24,000

Don't worry Moose, I'm invoicing £0 this month. Same as last month. Being on the bench is in some respects not entirely cool.

[FiveTimes]

I can beat you, I'm invoicing for just over £24,000 got to admit that's including a couple of weeks from last month too....

Why take the risk of letting the client owe soooo much ? What would happen if the client went bust ?
Is it normal for people to invoice when they can be bothered ? I invoice weekly and would prefer the money in my account than the clients

At the moment, that's my estimated income for the last two weeks of September onwards...
