    Hold your head high, and make sure you shake the dust off your sandals as you leave.

    On the bright side, you now get a long Christmas break you lucky sod.
    Knock first as I might be balancing my chakras.

      Hope you find something in the New Year.

        Apparently I am not skilled enough... which they knew before I started.
        So they took a chance on you as they thought there was a chance you could do the job & you couldn't? Crap giving and crap taking by the sounds of it.

        You know what they say about assumptions!

          I wasn't given the chance to do the job. I could have pretty much started to do the work this week. Clientco didn't want to find out.
          If your company is the best place to work in, for a mere £500 p/d, you can advertise here.

            I am guessing that I won't get anything until March next year.

              I wouldn't call being out of contract and not earning an income lucky.

                It could be worse.

                  If its not your last day yet, time to head to the supermarket and buy a nice fresh fish (or a reduced one), some sticky tape (or cable ties for a professional job) and a philips screwdriver. Take into clientco in a cool bag and work late on your last day. Find PC belonging to the relevant numpty and 'fix' his/her noisy fan before you leave.

                      It's a laptop environment. Also it's a 24/7 environment.... I left yesterday. I could have stayed until the end of the week, but as there was no work available, I duly left as soon as I could get my head around the tulip experience. Not the first time, and surely not the last time I'll take on a tulip role, but I am now more wary of going direct.
