I once terminated a rather tulipe contract (after about 3 days onsite) by calling a meeting with the permie boss, telling her the place was grim, the work dire and the project doomed and that I was now going home. Oh and next time you interview for contractors, try telling the truth.
Which was nice.

Originally posted by off2permIn your opinion does this incur any responsibilty having ended early. Are there any penalties generally, presuming an amicable parting?
I should add I have a pretty standard contract which as far as I can see does not imply this. Only been doing this for about 18 months so relatively new. Cheers Tony

The Agent.
But it would be a good idea to let the client know informally too.

Contract termination
Hi all,
This may be a silly question but if I wish to terminate my contract early who should the written notice be sent to. Is it the agent, the client or both ?
