    However, get offered the gig and see what happens with your current client...

        Good Luck. I also had a call today from an agent about a job in the public sector which I was down for in October.

            Well there you are then. If your imaginary twin brother is as bad as you, it should be easy to blame him.

            By the way, 'Wet Rag' is a compliment in the Netherlands.

              Not the way I said it.
              And what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument? Dodgy Agent, 16-5-2014

                  Well done on getting the gig. Did the agent know what you'd done?

                    I haven't got it yet; must go for interview. Agent just knows I'm someone who calls a spade a spade and someone at the potential ClientCo knows me; seeing as one of my references (genuine) was sitting in the room at the time of my tirade he may have passed on the info. We'll see.

                      Of course, good luck with the interview.

                      Sorry, I always seem to be apologising for being premature.
