I made that mistake in my last 'fat' contract. I didn't really notice the volume of recruiter calls dropping off over the two years I was there and assumed I would walk straight into another contract at a similar rate as I had always done in the past.

Keep an eye on the market and be prepared....

Just been told I can ignore the billable days limit in my contract and work all days in March rather than be forced to take 12 days off.

Not sure if that is a good thing......
