Potential BOOM!

On another note had the wierdest agent today! Calls me for a Infra Management role for contract than calls me back 60 mins later and says "Oh the client has said it is now Perm for 65k". Twat!

Why is he a twat?

Sorry, a contractor having 5 interviews for a role!!

Do try to keep your stories at least half believable

[ratewhore]

Id suspect someone today will either be fired or they will be severely reprimanded as the client [snip] went apetulip

apetulip - loving that one...

65k is too low for me mate. As much as that sounds bloody arrogant Id be wasting peoples time. Id be sitting there doing the role and waiting for my real role to come along. This would be unfair and there would be other people out there in the Permy world who would do that role more justice in terms of really wanting it. As a contractor I created a very large cushion for myself this year for 2009 so I have the opp to sit out all of 2009 if need be. I would not obv want to do that - but I also couldn't take a job like that and bugger off the next month.

Does that make sense? Prob not!

£65K is excellent.Think twice before dismissing the idea. Being in work beats the bench every time. Good luck.

Judging from your posts you're a young whippersnapper without a clue and probably not half as good as you think you are. Still you'll learn that in time

I guess that's why we are all here hey? I thought from reading your posts this was common amongst the contractor club?

As the role was still being offered as Contract by half the contract market....

Nope - he had 2 phone interviews and 3 face to faces over 3 weeks. That is the unbelievable part.
