Leaving mid contract

[russell]

Not nice. We don't talk about that. Troll was acquitted due to a lack of evidence & anyway a lot of people have rope, ducktape and chloroform in the back of their car.

Yeah but what about the hard core porn and panties they also found? How did his lawyers explain that one?

[russell]

You signed up for it

So what unless you are on the net everyday, someone has to sit there, might as well be the ****wit contractor

Take your own coffee/lunch in

You invoice don't you


FTFY

Yep.. Bedwetter

HTH

I wouldn't have minded the other negatives, but pure unfairness for no reason is the straw that broke the camels back. If I get something else and leave mid contract, they will only have themselves to blame, and I will have a clear conscience.

Just don't get sacked for using jobserve in the middle of the office.

Current client co is a long commute using car, terrible seat (outside managers office, screens exposed to the world), not places to eat or get a real coffee for miles. The work is also less than ideal.

To top that off I see other contractors working from home, so I asked same since I have a long commute. They said its against their policy? I have 1 months notice and want to leave.

Thoughts?

I think I found the reason:

(Wanking + Surfing + TV) = Hours Claimed (Feel free to add actual worked hours but its probably not going to make a difference).

I'm usually in the "see out a contract for as long as they would like to utilise my services" camp.

That being said, I've never been overally unhappy in a role, and while Russell did sign up for the long commute, everyone is allowed to change their mind.

Especially when you get what appear to be stupid rules (like not being allowed to WFH when others do).

Life is to short to be unhappy, but as others have said, do be aware of potential unhappy client for references, maybe leave it off the CV?

Do you have the cash to sit on the bench for a while? If so hand your notice in and start looking.

Bit risky, would prefer to secure another one first, then throw a sickie for 2 weeks for example.

Wasn't that long ago, Russ, old chap, that you informed the populace of CUK that you 'could afford not to work for decades'.

You weren't talking tulipe by any chance, were you ?

Some asserts are less liquid than others, I prefer to keep the liquid cash flow coming in by working otherwise I would be forced to liquidise aforementioned assets. i.e. if I just walked and then found the market dead and was benched for 12 months, would force me to sell some gold bars

You are a contractor. Either put up (stay or go we couldn't care) or shut up

Sorry thought this was a contractor discussion forum, it's good to talk.
