New York trip
If you are going up the Empire State Building (and you should!) get there first thing in the morning. We went on the Skyride, but wasn't impressed. I don't about using it to jump the queue because it hadn't built up when we were there. We also went to the top of the Rockefeller building at... -

Security Clearence - How?
> how do I go about getting security cleared Your agency needs to sort it out. They should have someone appointed as some sort of security manager. They should know what forms need filling in, what copies of ID you need to send and make sure you've filled the application in correctly before... -

subVersion server on a NAS
You can use Subversion without a SVN server. All you need is the TortoiseSVN client and a normal file store (like your NAS). No Linux box needed. :wink More info... http://qgyen.net/archive/using-subversion-without-a-subversion-server/ -

Management of Occupational Road Risk!
Do you ever give any of the permies a lift in your car to the other sites? If so, they could argue they are only looking after their own staff.- Ian

security cleared ??
I've currently got SC clearance. It was sorted out, and paid for, by the agent. If you don't already have it, then you'll have to make sure the client wants you to make it worth the agents time. Is it worth SC clearance? In my experience it won't get you a higher rate. If anything, it's worse...- Ian

Results of the Umbrella survey

Results of the Umbrella survey
"A contractor earning £1000 per week with no expenses will take home about £624.00" Does this sound about right? I've only just started contracting so the money side hasn't settled down yet. But as a permie I was taking home about 70% of my untaxed salary. According to this, it will only now be...- Ian

SC Clearance
My SC came through this week. :banana: Forms were sent off mid August. Took about 2 weeks for the DVA to scan it onto their system - backlog apparently. Once on their system took about 5 weeks, although I was warned that typically could take 2 months. I previously had SC but this lapsed 3 years...- Ian
