    Sadly not clientco already stated that contract will not be renewed after March.. That said I won't be too upset to leave then, this place is so bad the permies are quitting with no jobs to go to...

    Heh heh glad you're managing to keep yourself entertained. Have you got much longer on your contract there?

      Well - looks promising for 3-5 weeks of work, at least. That's what I've estimated that it will take me to fix the problems, which might take me to a busier period of the year (or not!).

      Team lead needs to talk to project manager.
      Project manager needs to talk to the budget manager.
      Budget manager needs to talk to the agent.
      Agent needs to talk to me.

      And they ideally want a start this week - I've said no to that, though.

      Boomed (possibly, without wishing to tempt fate!)

        You must have missed the invite. I knew you couldn't make it anyway.
        Where are we going? And what’s with this hand basket?

          Yup, stayed at CM's parents over XMas! Really enjoyed it.

          Had XMas dinner made by a Lt. Colonel! Very nice indeed!

            BP - have you done the CUK Crossword - that might help while away some time if not.

            not keen on crosswords. is there a cuk sudoku?

                It will take them a few days to talk to each other so the timing should be perfect.

                  Sounds like it's for the best then. Hopefully March will be a good time to start looking for a new gig.

                  Had another 6 month extension at Christmas, so I'm here for a while yet. Not quite sure what w*rk they have for me to do though.

                  I should really use this quiet time wisely and start brushing up on a few new skills (and revisiting a few that I've forgotten).
                  Where are we going? And what’s with this hand basket?
