It was working on a dull maintenance project for a bank that was killing me.

I cant believe you said that!!

Best of luck - my big idea plan B - estimated to make a lot of money - turned into Plan 9 from Outer Space

Cheers.

I am fairly sure there is revenue from this, there is just some more hard slog up to the summit and a bunch of decisions I have to get mostly right for it to work.

If anything it has been the most exciting software project I have worked on in years. 7 years I have contracted and it has mostly been working with a bunch of ass monkeys. The financial contract market in Scotland is now dead and if this fails I will be back to a perm role for 35,000 grand a year for the rest of my life. That is was drives me now.

35,000 grand is a lot of money....

Let's not document or share knowledge.

What does this have to do with contracting or anti-contracting - I have found this to be a problem in every time of organisation.

Now all I have to think about is where to store the stock, or whether to store the stock at all.

I have heard that 'drop shipping' is the best way of selling things - that way someone else has to wrap up and label the package and post it!

Cheers

PS good luck with the new arrival

In a slack permie job you can still find up to 20 hours a week for a Plan B if it's going somewhere depending on family stuff. Or, if there's code to churn out you could pay a cheapo coder to do it

Definately no sex industry related stuff.

Why ever not? Money for old rope. You can then use the generated funds to do 'better' things, like buy a few fish'n'chip shops.

I think he meant going down the old rent boy route, Threaded.

Hmm...flash of understanding....Is the Pet Shop Boys song, "I Love You (You Pay My Rent) about rent boys ?

How do you think old "Sore Arse" Threaded made his money? It wasn't all Cray Supercomputers and "Time Machines" when he first started out ya know!

He is ex-public school so perhaps he should stick with what he knows best.
