      Hmmm, spoke to pimp again this morning.

      Unwilling to give me the name of the client.

      Apparently they are an "exclusive client" of his and a big company that I will never have heard of.

      And "it's all a bit political"

      Methinks this will not be for me.

        2 Daft questions.

        1. Right of Subs?

        2. Any possibility of doing the work remotely for your current client?

        (This is all assuming that you get the other role).
        If your company is the best place to work in, for a mere £500 p/d, you can advertise here.

          I've had a couple of those. They never go anywhere. My guess is that the Pimp isn't on the clients supplier list and is trying to circumvent their normal hiring process as a result.

          If he won't tell you who it is, tell him you're not interested.

            1. no
            2. no - gig is very much hands on

            The pimps reluctance to diclose who the clientco is off putting to say the least

            Also the pimp being from computer people never helps, they are not high on my list of agencies I don't generally deal with.
