      Yes, and the bad news is that it will not get any better.

              YOur cure

              If we have recession again, get yourslef down to the local temping agency and go and work on a building site or for a scaffolding company for 6 months.

              You will love IT after that

                Yes I designed the shelf stacking system - now Sainsburys use it as do Asda.

                  There might be the occasional exception in certain sectors,but it seems to me that the continuing decay of rates and opportunites in IT has changed the World of IT contracting into a wolrd of IT temping, its not uncommon now for the IT contract market to offer less money than the equivalent perm position.

                  I did previously work on a building site in Motherwell back in 1980, hard work but I enjoyed it.


                  At least I cashed in with IT contracting when the going was good !

                  Feelling strange but I dont why ...
