I'm not sure you want me to post negative, surly drivel.Originally posted by BrilloPad View Post
dont start! post some drivel here first.....
I'm having to dust off the old cv and dive into a strange market at the mo. 2 personal friends of mine are (apologies for fraternising with the enemy) agents, and they're on notice to find me something a lot more interesting.
There's only so much more abject boredom I can stand. And they have the cheek to ask me to go permie.

It's a Wilmslow moment I know, but they can shove their <<canned laughter>> right up their chocolate starfish. Permie? Ach.
So I'm looking around... right at a time when I can't really be bothered. Going to look good in interviews that is.
Interviewer: So, how would you solve that particular technical problem?
RH: I couldn't give a flying-bearded-flip, honest, I'd rather snort Old Spice.
Interviewer: Ah. I see. Erm, well, how do you think you'll fit in with the team here at clientco?
RH: To break the ice, perhaps I could beat you to death with one of your shoes, then feed it to the director?

Seriously - who hard are they pushing permie? How long can you tell them you are thinking about it?
