Last offer I had I turned down, they came back with a higher rate, I turned it down again, they upped the rate and I'm starting today
Long and short of it is you are a business, and if not in your best interests either commercially or socially then don't take it. Do you think ClientCo agonises of telling an interviewee no? Same principle reallyOriginally posted by Stevie Wonder BoyI can't see any way to do it can you please advise?

Nope, it is a professional arrangement and I behave in a professional manner.
Although I suspect the OP is using this as a disguised vanity thread to show how he has so many offers that he's beating them off with a stick. There are some needy folk on hereI'm sorry, but I'll make no apologies for this

Yeah because the agent and client will be crying on their pillow all night that you turned them down. I love turning down contracts it means you are in demand or can afford to say no to crappy clients.Comment
