    Astonishing!

    It's as though Notradamus himself, was in the room.

    You've come right out the other side of the forest of irony and ended up in the desert of wrong.

        Is it possible to irradiate oil?

        Well, look on the bright side, contractor rates there will be going up, up, up!

            What's the betting the agency will stiff the family for his last months wages as he didn't turn in signed timesheets?
            Insanity: repeating the same actions, but expecting different results.

              How was he killed. Was it like this

              Would being in the custody of kidnappers be classed as working time? And if so, would they sign timesheets. Maybe that's why he got the chop. He asked for them to sign. A good contractor always gets his timesheets signed no matter what. At least there would be no expenses - until now. There'll be repatriation and funeral costs.

                    I'd invoke my substitution clause.

                      Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

                      I preferred version 1!
