Can I go ahead with a faxed contract?

Originally posted by AtW View PostNot a lawyer, but I think you should be allright - even verbal contract has legal force, an email exchange with agreed contractual obligations should stay in court, and faxed copy should be almost as good as real deal - at least for low valued things, ie if you were selling diamonds then trusting fax would probably be foolish, but in this case it should be allright. Don't blame me if it won't be though - the risk is always yours, but if I was in your position (barring any obvious errors in contract) I'd accept it.
Just make sure if you doing stuff by email you ensure the proper details of the party you are dealing with are present in the signature of the email."You’re just a bad memory who doesn’t know when to go away" JRComment

Originally posted by AtW View PostI thought you retired sometime ago?
I took the decision a few years ago that when current client stopped wanting me that that would be it, unfortunately they keep asking me to work. (They have tried to stop wanting me a few times, but they always eventually want me back. Longest continuous period off was seven months in 2002, when they replaced me with permie. A few years later, he's left, and I'm now back, apparently indefinitely.)
Having said that, three days a week (Monday, Wednesday, Friday) is really easy to cope with - don't think I could cope with five days a week.
Am sometimes having trouble filling up the other days, so until I work that out there's no rush to quit altogether. I've already done/tried all the things I thought I was going to do - need new projects now.Comment
