My four month extension arrived and turned out to be a three week extension instead.

My boss spoke about wanting me to take the three month cool off period and re-engage when we discussed renewal. I would rather take three months off over summer/autumn than over Xmas so hopefully re-engagement...

I have seen a few Xmas furloughs but been exempted.

Noting really happens over Xmas so furloughs make a lot of sense.

That said I have met a lot of contractors for whom losing even a single billable day off was like losing parent for them.

My manager has initiated an extension until November but until it arrives I am still applying for suitable roles I am approached about.

Two years ago I could pretty much guarantee an interview per application but so far silence....
