Benched

Thanks Admin, Greece for 3 weeks next Thursday, so have half of next week off here. Wife is Greek and their family have a place in a small fishing village near Pelion, loads of beaches nearby.

Enjoy it and don't worry about gigs till you get back.

Enjoy the time off mate. What a superb time to be at a loose end. Off anywhere nice?

Yep, but I've found a couple of great gigs in the summer holidays in the past as companies decided they needed replacements or had very urgent requirements; even started one without an interview and purely on the basis of being available, and it turned out very well. Bear in mind that in the holiday period there are less contracts on offer, but also less people available to start immediately.

Good point Mich, hopefully it pick up towards end of August or something pops up before then.

Last day at client, have been looking for something else but going away for 4 weeks holiday so not exactly available. Market seems quiet never been benched this time of year I guess its a lull as people are on holiday?
