Little did the client realise how efficient and hard working you were!

Sorry, just pissed myself laughing.

You can well laugh. On one deliverable I was told it was "too professional"!!!

Does this mean I should be more amateurish?

[eek]

So how do you ask "Are you sure you have work for me to do?" without getting incredulous gasps from your audience?

1) How does the department work? What is the project life cycle
2) What projects are on the go or in the pipeline
3) Which projects will I be working on.....

Yep. I was told they were Prince 2. I was told what projects I was to be working on.

I have a mate that is making a business strategy out of working for firms like this. He has been running two concurrent contracts for most of this year and is now at a stage where he wants another 1 or 2 on top! Its cleared off a load of debts and put a few quid in the bank to help on his upcoming house extension.

I will be trying the same scheme for the rest of this year as the current client is making noises about keeping me on as well as the new role...

Isn't being paid to do no work something that permies do rather than contractors?
