    Man do we have to carry you through every step of you career. The amount of time you spent asking questions about getting in to contracting was painful! The amount of time spent asking questions while just about to start your contract was painful and we were just waiting until you got into the contract and needed your arse wiping again.

    When are you gonna just use a bit of common sense? You are now a business man. Not a permie with HR, not a little boy with Daddy looking over your shoulder. You need to start taking a bit of responsibility and standing on your own two feet making your own decisions and plans.

    You KNOW you can't start applying for contracts 3 months before. The start notices tend to be less than a week, you are going to have to take time of the one you are in for interviews, you havn't a bloody clue what you are doing there to even update your CV accurately.

    Just get your head down and do some work and make a good impression first as has already been said and above all start thinking for yourself rather than looking for a nose wipe every few days

          We are having a discussion about people in the North West. That should be taken for granted, in fact we should be congratulated for being able to turn our laptops on and type anything intelligible at all.
