I should know better than getting in to English games, especially with TF lurking around

    Seasider, if you are sweating at the thought of a £17 per day rate cut, I would also prepare yourself for the 10% rate cut which will probably come shortly after all the contractors are under a single agency.....

    ....on the 2nd of February

    Seems we are all being pedants...

    Are you sure this is right? Jesus wept is the shortest verse in the bible (John 11:35)

    The recruitment agency has written to me saying this however, saying this:
    Is this an employment or other type of business law issue? Should I seek professional advise on this before comitting to anything?

    But in this case it was a bit of a joke thread. Post 10 through to 13 all have incorrectly used words on purpose for a bit of giggle. You're task is to spot them all!
