    Lots of people at Lloyds have not had the new contract through
    Politicians are wonderfull people, as long as they stay away from things they don't understand, like working for a living!

      Makes you wonder whether their 'skills' were actually wanted in the first place or was it just window dressing.

        Of course I made I sure I sounded disappointed.

            I was offered a ten percent cut by a big legal client

            Told them to stuff it, the two significant gigs I've had since then have been a twenty and a ten percent increase respectively

            A renewal on a lower rate is a piss-take, don't do it!

              10% cut, just renew and take the piss and when you can be bothered and the market picks up go for a 20%-30% increase in your next role ! boomed, show them your ar*e as you walk out the door.
