            These polls are meaningless (as too are the what is your highest qualification polls)

            a/ some people lie
            b/ some do few very short contracts with high rates and spend the rest of the year on the bench
            The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

            But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

              Don't demean the poll. I sense an ulterior motive Mr. Bagpuss... <pulls best Peter Faulkner quizzical pose>

                Last time we did one the 800 a day person worked a few months a year i.e. billed a lot less then those on lower rates. A more meaningful poll would be how much did you bill last year.

                  Well, would it now? Would it just? That sounds like information that an organised contractor would have (i.e. not the majority on this board), also you are trying to freeze out new contractors who haven't worked a year are you? Or should they give you cashflow projections...

                    Sits back awaiting the inevitable poll, followed by an entire thread arguing whether this includes VAT and expenses in true CUK fashion.

                    This is then followed by the "what was your turnover" poll.

                    AtW will sense that the congregation is in the mood for polls and will start one about what he should have for lunch tomorrow.

                    At this point SA will complain about too many polls, shortly before one of the old timers complaining about the quality of posts on this board

                    The old timer will go into voluntary exile for an afternoon whilst lurking to see if they're missed. This will be ended with an "I'm Back" thread.
