I hope all their systems crash and burn and dont recover until you return.Originally posted by HeliCraig View PostThats bad news... they haven't changed their minds now your back then?Originally posted by zeitghost View PostBummer man, sorry to hear that...Thanks all - I kind of knew it was coming, so I'm really quite happy about it, to be honest. We've gone from having a team of about 15 contractors working well together to there being a team of five working with the permies (from a "consultancy").Originally posted by NickFitz View Post
"Welcome back, have a bin liner."
I'm looking forward to having some (more) time at home - school play on Monday morning, and then look for work in January.
That said, I've just spoken to an agent about a "retained contract" for 12 months or more, which would be good - chance to sit and do nothing and get paid for it

Roll on tomorrow afternoon when I walk out the door, leaving them with nasty things hitting the fan and a BIG grin on my face
