So you have great power now as a permie middle manager?

Fecking brilliant.

We're sad because we'll never know the joys of "a promotion" ever again. £20 a week extra and the right to put 'Senior' in front of your job title.

You Permies don't know you're born!

I bet hes already measured his desk space versus similar grade managers and has put in a request for that extra pedastal and leather-like chair.

Have done powerful permanent man-management and lowly(ish) contract project management. The future is all about flexibilty and financial gain. Trust me. I'm a contractor.

Re: Power

Power? mmm...I am a Managing Director, a Finance Director, a HR Director, a Sales Director, not to mention Chief Technical Architect, and Most Senior Developer Possible.

Oh, and I have money too.
