    As I have a CSCS card, by the recruitment agencies database I would probably qualify!

    But I have far more sense than to go in to the “profession” of ICT

    £80 a day? £400 a week, in Wales? You'd be like a millionaire!

    This guy must know he's pissing in the wind to even bother writing that. My bet is this is ClientCo thinking it's like hiring a cleaner, the agent has told them it isn't and ClientCo insisted so agent has posted this knowing it'll be laughed at.

    Mind you, clientco might have been reading PC's posts and drawn their own conclusions about the contracting market in south wales...

    Probably the fact that I wouldn't be qualified even if I did apply.
