£350 / day anywhere is crap.Originally posted by GB9 View Post£350 / day in the middle of London is not competitive! -
Definitely not great....but if you lived next door to it and wanted a quiet life, then maybe, but when you live 200 miles away and the overnight stay is LondonOriginally posted by Cliphead View Post£350 / day anywhere is crap.
Just wish the guys would put a rate on. Apart form anything else it would reduce the number of applicants they get.
Disappointing as the role was good and the agent sounded like a decent guy.Comment

Exaggerating of course but I could adjust to that if I had no choice but I have no real commitments other than looking after myself.
What about folks with families, big mortgage, trying to live a lifestyle they can't afford (I know plenty of people who have unrealistic expectations), it's not much to work with unless frugal makes you happy.Comment
