        Its a small'ish company so I knew cost would be an issue - I've already trimmed my rate down, but I cant really come much further down.
        Potential clientco have come back and suggested a rate that is non-negotiable, I sort of feel insulted by the offer.

        I've told the agent that I can't do it but I'd still be happy to work for the client if they raise the bar.

            Ouch, sorry to hear that.

            I've recently had an agency throw their toys out of the pram because I laughed at their 24 month no-compete with ANY agency customer...

                      Afternoon.

                      Well I've worked on a bit of Enterprise Architect this morning (creating Requirements and spiffing generated docs).

                      Then had a walk to the shops.

                      I'm now looking at setting up blogs in my WordPress website.
