Ok worst case scenario they want to get rid of him in a couple of months, in two months they give him notice (I presume your notice is 1 month) then that’s an extra month pay, therefore the extension would work out to be 3 months instead of 6 months!! Win win situation if you ask me..
Anyway this thread is about me me me me .. stop high jacking itComment

Actually I am under no illusions whatsoever. I always treat extensions with a pinch of salt. This is no different.
I was not bothered either way. I was not expecting anything at all to be honest as the project is very near the end.
I have had loads of activity from agents recently so I'm confident I can get something, somewhere should this go t*ts up.
My point is I don't think you can draw any conclusions either way but for me at least (and many other contractors on site here) its business as usual.
Originally posted by AtW View PostYes, but the point here is that your renewal means nothing. Even though I appreciate that you think otherwise, but this is because it is your contract so you can't think strategically

I always just treat my contracts like a [notice period] rolling contract. I am a little paranoid like that so have a big 'rainy day' fund.Comment
