    Time for a drastic cut

    Ok – just come back from lunch with a group of ex-colleagues (all contractors) from a previous contract.

    The test manager who is a couple of years older then me, but has been contracting for 20 years, has taken some drastic action which she felt has helped her finding a role.

    Not only has she streamlined her past experience on her CV, she has had plastic surgery (boob-job and face lift) – I must admit it has taken about ten years off her.

    Now I know I said I would take a 'cut' to secure a decent role but I don’t think I will take it that far

      Maybe a boob job would go well with my beard.

      Food for thought.
      Will work inside IR35. Or for food.

            Mmmmmmmmmm.

            Maybe I should do something.
            How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

                  Don't squeeze them too hard, it can't be good for their elasticity.
