boomed to bananas!

My client asked me to stay until the end of the year and probably a few months after that!



But it was getting a bit chilly, so I decided to quit and go to a tropical paradise instead!



As a contractor I work to live, not vice-versa.

Less than 4 weeks until I'm off to the sun.


Have an uneasy feeling I will not find anything when I get back, is it just me?

Nice work that man.

Where are you going?

I finish mid-Dec. and am then heading off myself. Central or South America most likely, until early March.

Heading to Egypt, Thailand and Goa.

Are you worried about the market when you get back?

I think that is just you. If you know what you are doing I think the work is there. May not be 5-10 possible gigs a day on the job boards granted but they are still there.

Go relax, keep the PMA head on, bag yourself a gig once you get back and give us your boomed news.

Nope, but I think contractors would be in a much better situation if they didn't let themselves be hustled by all the fearmongering that goes on.

I cannot find the correct smiley in the list.

Aw, you could have offered the gig to your good buddies on CUK first Might have got a subbie to pay for your cocktails.

I seem to recall from one of your posts you've got a pad in Sharm.
I've been to Egypt & India but not Thailand; it sounds a great place for the winter.

I agree with NLUK. There won't be a complete dearth of roles; somthing always comes along. If a really juicy contract came up next month I'd do it as I've not booked a flight yet but I'm not actively looking. Got some software to study, in between spells in the sea & the bar, to keep the brain active.

Damn you you singletons without any kids!!!

Pretty much all of my income goes to funding the family, and I have no friends who are adventurous enough to want to go on any holidays (read: they're too whipped into place by their wives). I would love to visit places like Petra for example.
