Grumpy contractor

[Hill Station Murthy]

If this individual is curmudgeonly and obstreperous in the course of performing the tedious, boring chores that we all are subjected to in the course of the work we are contracted to perform then he only has himself to blame in my opinion.

But if this individual is acting sullenly because of a result of not having his contract extended beyond the expiry date then I would say to him that this comes with the territory of working as a contractor.

I would personally walk to his seat and tell him to suck it up.


I would add as a postscript, however, that not being renewed at this time of the year is very unfortunate as the market tends to be flat as we approach the Yuletide season and he will propbably be looking February at the ealiest before secxuring a new role. This bit, I would not tell to his face as I don't think it is likely to help lift his gloomy mood.

Very thoughtful and considerate, HSM.

You have a future in HR.
