      Sas, don't be shy, just say it. You would miss me too much.

                I need help

                Any suggestions
                same problem, I told my client I was taking 2 weeks leave over xmas and the cheeky beggars made a contract amendment and extended by 2 weeks.

                  Looks like it worked, no callback yet.

                  Not out of the woods yet, wouldn't be the first time I got a call while packing.

                  9 days to go
