slack time in a contract

[The Lone Gunman]

The danger there is they realise whilst you are away for a few weeks/months that you don't actually add any value to the project.

Good time to start an online business (plan b).

That is a risk of course. You could always start looking elsewhere while you are off.

Hello peeps

Just wondering if people have come across this, and how you dealt with it. mid way through a contract and the work dries up due to waiting for other teams to deliver their bit, likely to be a week or so until needed full time again. Its a short term gig and every week counts funds wise.

Do you slow the pace down and make yourself busy, or take the time off?

cheers

Slow the pace and get paid for nowt. The people who pay you probably think you're busy anyway.
Gem up on new skills and wait.
