6 years contracting, 10 contracts (longest was 18 months) and only 6 weeks total bench timeOriginally posted by NorthWestPerm2Contr View PostCheap it is there are no overheads, but easy? Since when? What do you do again.....?
In all that time I've only worked one day of one weekend and I'm usually out of the office on time
For the money and lack of responsibility I have it's much easier than being a permie!Coffee's for closersComment

2.5 years contracting, 3 weeks bench time so far, have to work bloody hard to find a contract and then to prove I am worth the 300-400/day I get paid....Originally posted by Spacecadet View Post6 years contracting, 10 contracts (longest was 18 months) and only 6 weeks total bench time

This is a classic, and no insult intended Mupps.Originally posted by Mupps View Posti'm having tulip all luck at the moment.
You are asking the wrong question, and at exactly the wrong time
there are two questions
1. I am bored sh!tless cant take any more , how can I get out
2. I left an easy contract because I was bored, now Im skint, my family is destitute, me ribs are poking through, and my head is spinning due to lack of ale, should I have stayed
before you even think about answering 1
think about 2
