Meh Boomed

[Sockpuppet]

Boomed. Should be happy, client have offered me another 6 months at a 20% rate increase.

Should be posting the banana but I'm not - although I know I'm lucky as plenty of people without contracts out there I'm failing to get into the mood. Maybe this is a sign I should turn it down and move on. 20 months now which this client - longer than any perm job I had other than working for Sockpuppet Inc.

What's your current market like?

Do you think it would take you a while to find summat else?

[Zippy]

No Sockpuppet, you should accept and plan to move on. Well done on getting the extension and increase.

No, I agree with you. "One-man-band gets a few months' more work for 1 person" should be seen as business as usual, not a cause for congratulation and celebrations. "Boomed" began with not a little sarcasm, but I think some people are starting to believe in it.

If people genuinely turn a corner or expand their business, then that's worth a . If it's just somebody continuing to pootle along with the same old stuff, it's , , , , , or at best.

For some people, business as usual for the past 2 years has been watching Trisha and hoping the phone would ring.
I'm still thankful that I made the right decisions pre-crash to make sure I was good for a market that would only be going up post-crash
