    Well, I can only hope that our paths will never cross. As far as i am concerned, your CUK and real life rep is no different. One of the reasons why I left my last contract was because the contractor I was working with was sh*te and was an insult to the technical community.
    You left a contract because you felt someone you worked with was an insult to the technical community. My my, you must be loaded to be so precious.

    The term 'what goes around, comes around'. Cowboy contractors will get theirs eventually and if you are intimidated by somebody like that it doesn't say much for your own confidence in your own skills.
    What happens in General, stays in General.
    You know what they say about assumptions!

      Inform your nearest Sheriff (Are you working in Scotland? Quite a few there)

      HTH.

      qh
      He had a negative bluety on a quackhandle and was quadraspazzed on a lifeglug.

      I look forward to your all knowing and likely sarcastic and unhelpful reply.

        Not loaded at all. Just have a little pride and self-respect to work with people who are tulip at their job. If I continued working with the guy, my credibility would have suffered even more.
        If your company is the best place to work in, for a mere £500 p/d, you can advertise here.

          I love it when a fellow contractor is terrible, makes me look good.
          Carry on with what you do... if you believe in going in with bullsh*t, then go for it.

            "Russell" is a trolling sockpuppet no better than Contractor79 (in fact I wouldn't be overly shocked if it's the same puppeteer), ignore him.

              are all cowboys really indians?

                They are probably owned by the same person for all I / we know.
