    Accounting

    I guess it also depends on whether it's all about the money. The short business case requirement for training (It's relevant, I want it, I need it, I can afford it, signed caffiend, authorised by caffiend) does it for me, I'm SO behind with prof development after too long perm. All tax...

    Snipped from Reuters: "Last week, Tesco boss Dave Lewis, a former senior Unilever executive ..." Now, where did my tinfoil hat go?

    Is the recording available online for anyone who missed it please? - or is there likely to be a repeat? Thanks

    I just need to get two references ...

    It's a fair cop, only the first couple and last couple pages, then did search thread. Mea culpa if I got the intent wrong?

    I just need to get two references ...

    OK, now I'm annoyed. I'm new, so fair enough to want a reference from my last employer. I was there close on three years. Post offered. Now they want references from the one before that - tricky, given NHS restructures measured in rpm. We still must have a reference, we are Borg, you will be...

    Opt out of Conduct of employment agencies 2003 act?

    Thanks Dave, so much on this thread that my head was starting to explode with the should I, shouldn't I - as I implied, a little learning is indeed a dangerous thing. You've really focussed me on what matters, cheers for that. My wording was deliberately chosen as their contract heading reads...

    Opt out of Conduct of employment agencies 2003 act?

    IANAL - I'm studying law though, which makes me even more dangerous. Also, contract law: not really my field. When I received an 'opted out' contract - my first contract in *mumble* years after being a permie - I went and looked at these regs and read through much of this thread - thanks to all...

    Monitor agency caps (NHS)

    Hi, newbie here, search didn't bring up anything on the topic of Monitor agency caps. Anyone else running into these/wants to discuss/moan/point and laugh at agencies who want someone who can walk on water, in London, for £170/day (by the time they've taken their cut off the cap rate)? For...
