      Fake your own death and then apply for the vacancy with a false moustache and strong Mexican accent, repeat with a bigger moustache and stronger accent every time they ask you to go the US?

        go to the airport with one normal shoe, and wear a gigantic shoe on your other foot with a wire hanging out of it, and try to act normal.

          I bloody knew that was going to happen at some time.

          Major project I'm working on goes live in July and the vast majority of work has to be done in April, May, June. Last night my boss said that he wanted me stateside for those months embedded in a 'warroom' to ensure the project is a success as working remote/late is not the best way of working.

          Suggestions on how to get out of this.
          You are a contractor, if you don't want to do it don't.......

              Why do you want to get out of this?

              Surely an escape from your dreary home life would be very welcome? Esp. in sunny California.

                I would hate your life. Well and truly a slave of the system.
                Surely the whole point of contracting is to earn lots of wonga while doing as little as possible.

                    Surely the whole point is to build your plan b to the point that it earns lots of wonga while you do absolutely nothing at all.

                      Yes, but I'm 20 years younger than you and still have the energy.
