    If they pay a decent rate then I'm quite prepared to let them believe they're right.

        No rate is decent enough to deal with this eejit. Not when what they are doing is to the detriment of their project, several other projects and going to lose their company muchos dinares.

            Food detritus left carefully balanced on top of street furniture, as if that is somehow morally superior to just chucking it on the ground.

              Agents that wont get back to you regarding a role you interviewed for.

                God yeah. I'm going through this yet again at the moment. The obvious assumption is that I didn't get the job, but I thought the interview went well and the agent is insistent that the client is still making a decision.

                My interpretation is that the client has big doubts and almost certainly doesn't want me, but the agent won't let it go without a fight. But he also won't actually admit that to me.

                So I'm expected to sit here for days on end (2 days so far) with the kind of possibility that I might actually get the job. But also the very strong suspicion that I won't.

                    Yep, am getting fed up with the waiting as clientco said they had to respond to all candidates by wednesday.
