Phone call from ex-client co manager earlier this evening.
Ex-Client: Are you available at the moment?
Me: Sort of, why?
Ex-Client: We've got a really urgent requirement to get someone in, we are short staffed and can't cope. It's essentially doing what you did for us before. Interested?
Me: Sure, but I have couple of other clients on the go so...
Ex-Client: Not a problem, you can work from home. Can you start tomorrow?
Me: Errr, yeah?
Ex-Client: Great! I'll set up the paperwork ASAP and get back to you.
Looks like I'm going to be busy in the run up to Christmas."Being nice costs nothing and sometimes gets you extra bacon" - Pondlife.Comment
