      Absolutely, back in May I was lucky enough to receive several offers. It's a crap market at the moment - either the roles are fake or the rates are too low. Just as I was typing that I got called about a role.... Doesn't feel like a solid one though.

        Same. Good validation, so thanks.

              give thanks for the extension.
              My Gig should have finished end of November but got a weeks notice in September.
              Market sooooooooooo quiet it's almost depressing.
              What there is there is taking ages to progress to interviews etc so I'm readying myself for a long sit on the bench - probably till the New Year

                Man you don't give up do you?

                The joke has become so dry now that it sucks the moisture out of all the other jokes.

                  He's got a point, you've still not technically finished this one yet

                      I look forward to your all knowing and likely sarcastic and unhelpful reply.
