    Of course, if I really hated it here I could turn down the offer, couldn't I?

    If you give me your facebook details I'll post on your wall too if you like :-)

    Happy xmas!
    Nah, I dont do FB. But in all seriousness, I dont get this 'boomed!' malarky. Do folk that post about it on here run around all the other contractors on client site saying 'I've been boomed!'?

    Or is it just a pissing contest because I dont get it!
    I couldn't give two fornicators! Yes, really!

            I just dont get it. Are people insecure and they have to tell everyone? I mean it's not like winning a couple of mill on the lottery.
            Well I think it's bloody fantastic! Nothing wrong with wanting to shout from the rooftops sometimes. What's insecure about it?

            BTW if i'd won a couple of mill on the lottery, I wouldn't be telling anyone

              Although saying that since Friday was pretty much last full business day and they left it till 4pm its sorta only 1 hour to spare I suppose.

              Looks like the 1 month crap has been put to bed because its 3 months again. (Turned down 1 month last time but agreed to 2 to run up until end Dec).

              When does the ten page thread start where you ask everyone if you should take the extension or not ?
