    The fat man looks defeated, shrunken. He sits in a pool of blood, sobbing.

    The crow says "nice picture", and continues to preen it's feathers.

    [edit] The fat man says "whatever percentage you want... just leave me alone, please."

        He tells you about a job with a vague description, he explains "that's all the information the client gave me", and points towards the thatched village.

        You agree a rate of £2,500 a day where the fat man's take will be -5%. He hands you a works schedule and a contract.

            Check contract and tell him your payment terms are 1 week in advance of you doing the work.

            As the contract starts today you now owe me £12,500.

            Pay up now or I add interest!!!

              He finds 30p in cash, and a crossbow with 5 explosive tipped bolts.

                Check contract for IR35 compliance.

                Tell him your payment terms are 1 week in advance of you doing the work.

                    The contract is inside IR35, and opting out of agency regs - you have the client contact's name and address, and a vague description of the work involved.

                    The fat man says "I have no cash on me".
