take the perm or short term contract.

i am in the posistion of having 2 offers on the table.

A) perm role which does not intrest me much but is a way back into employment paying 8k less than what i was on in my last job.

b)contract paying 22 p/h but only 3 months

more money or job for a while while looking for something better.

You don't sound like you are exactly a contracting hot-shot with rare skills and a bright future at the top end of the game.

Therefore, given the impending economic armageddon approaching the UK, take the perm option.

hey i have some rare skills but they are so rare no one wants them

Might be 3-month rolling?

This will be the wrong answer but - take the contract. If the perm job does not interest before you start it really isn't going to get any better.
Been there, done that and it was f-ing awful

Good luck!

Go permatazoa for the next 18 months, use that time to learn some of the next lot of "in demand skills". Then you'll soon claw back what you lost the prior 18 months. HTH.

This is true, though the first 5 years were bad, the 2nd 4.5 were worse.

Oh dear Zeity. I was lucky and had the chance to escape my living hell. Hope you do too ....

I escaped that personal hell in 1989...

I started dreaming about offing the Technical Director & thought it was time to go...

What was really upsetting was that despite (in the dream) taking good solid body hits, the bastard kept on getting up...

So it was more of a nightmare than a dream, really...

If you HAD killed him, you'd have been out by now

confirmed the perm role , at least it will be easy enough to retrain whilst earning a few beer tokens for doing not much work and it`s close to home.
