      I'm quite interested to know what types of stereotypes about contractors you would like to end. Is there any particular one that you cannot stand?

      Thanks a lot, hope you all have a great weekend
      Very polite post btw

      I hate the assumption that we're all treckies and its just not true, some of us are Whovians

      Anyway geeky = sexy in my book
      I'm sorry, but I'll make no apologies for this

                  OK - give us a clue. Which bit is inaccurate?

                    Deeply unattractive - Wouldn't say that.
                    Bolshy - Nope.
                    Right Wing - Ok right of center .
                    Money grabbing - Nope.
                    tax dodging - Ok a little.
