Contracting: more of the money, less of the sh1tComment

On my first ever contract I got told off for parking my Audi in the section reserved for Porsches. Oddly enough the guy who turned up in his mates F355 was allowed to park it wherever he wanted.Originally posted by TheFaQQer View PostWhen I was last permie, I was asked at a management meeting "which one of your contractors drives an Aston Martin? We're obviously paying them too much!"
I spoke to the contractor (who I knew) and he just said "no, you're paying me less than I earned on my last gig - they were paying me too much!"While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'Comment
