Have been working without a signed contract this week, but in the certain knowledge MyCo will get paid for days worked.

Finally got the Head Honcho to sit down with me today.

HH Do you want another 6 months?
SB Yes please
HH Do you want more money?
SB Yes please?
HH How much more?
SB An extra £50 per day?
HH OK
SB Good
