Was there someone in this thread looking for a VB6 Dev role?

Just spotted one on jobserve, outside IR35.

I read somewhere that a flag made of fabric on a flagpole looks quite noble (okay not all of them, ref Germany 1930s), but a load of them on every lamp post just looks like a massive council estate.

I went from petrol to electric for my hedge trimmer but it just wouldn't cut clean so I went back to petrol, like a knife through butter.

One thing I did find out was the ethanol in petrol can corrode the pipes over time in 2/4 stroke garden machines but then I found out about Aspen fuels....

This figures.

Permy role: we want you to be a "company" person, far more than doing the job.

Contractor: we just want you to get the job done.

Seeing the fashion for FTCs, I am probably approx 3-4 months from closing the ltd, but then what? Applied for permy roles but they are like pulling my own teeth.

2 interviews and one of those bulltulip psychometric test (never done one before), then in final int they say this question around...

FTC's for five and six month contracts, WTF? I don't recall seeing that before.


Fooking dead as a dead thing out there.
