Is cyberman a member of this forum? His (for I assume it's a he) comment had me pissing my pants!



Sounds like someone else bitching about contracting because they think it's just a better paid permie job. Grrr...

I had the impression that he's often in drag!

She counts getting kicked off a gig as being made redundant.

If I did that I'd be in double figures.

Talking of which, what was the ending of that BBC debt lady who was blogging on there?

She seems to be doing OK:

Not bad for someone who seemed to be totally incapable of managing her own finances!

How can one have the same job title in 20 jobs since 1997 ? I've never seen such CV .. or is it an IB thing ?

Look at the dates. When was she unemployed and moaning about it on the beeb there is no break in the dates? Although I only did a quick glance down!

Also, in her whole career since 97 her longest role was 13 months. Lots of 2 and 3 month roles which would imply to me that she's either very good (gets head hunted a lot) or very bad (gets sacked a lot). Given the tulip she came out with on the beeb site I'd plump for the last one!

It's a freelancer thing - you pick a job title for yourself then go round doing basically the same thing for various clients.

gap is May-September 06. So 5 months out, in about 10 years contracting. Easily budgetable for anybody not leveraged like billyo.

Couldn't be @rsed going that far back - didn't realise it was so long ago. How time flies by!

Well, it could be the same job by titles tend to vary from client to client .. what if she says she was a Business Intelligence Consultant during an interview and a manager from the past job refers to her as a Junior BA or BI Support Specialist?
