So you've pulled Nigella Lawson...

[Old Hack]

I'm not working no. Just like you're not. Getting paid though. Doh! You really are dense sometimes.

No, you see, you have stated, that you are not working today, but that you are working tomorrow. I am working today, and getting paid. You can't suddenly change it sas, as you'd look a fool. You said this, not me.

Stop lying, it's undignified.

[Old Greg]

Only a fool makes assumptions.
I am billing. I'm on contract with Client 1 till December at least.
Its the cushiest and most lucrative contract I've ever had.
I will work tomorrow on revising draft for Client 2 - this is a fixed cost contract.

Do you never make assumptions?

I can see why you've not been very successful at this contracting lark.
Maybe it's because you call posting on CUK "working".
I make the distinction between real working and not working but getting paid for it.
My current contrcat with client 1 runs tills December, I doubt I've worked more than 3 hours for any day I've been paid for.

Qualified by evidence, yes

Sas, stop it, for you're looking more and more foolish. I have been very successful at it. very, as has my wife. I am running my cleansing models, and making you look a fool to pass the time. It's been very easy too, if I were to be honest.

I don't doubt you've worked more than 3 hours a day either. Cleaning is such loathsome work.

I am running my cleansing models .... Cleaning is such loathsome work.

Try to find work you enjoy then.

Try to find work you enjoy then.

I normally do thanks, but this one, the project team are at each others throats. If it wasn't for the rate, I'd be home, and to be honest, I'll be away al summer with the kids anyway.

Thanks for the concern though; it's touching...

Probably hard for someone so demonstrably thick to be able to separate the two.

Whoosh.

Qualified by evidence, yes

So by your own standards you are a fool.
