Makes a change to be honest. Last few clients have been last minute.
Its nice to be able to look around and see if theres anything else but a bit irritating that you have to sort your CV, deal with agents etc when you'd really just prefer to stay where you are.
Current gig is decent rate, decent work, and they're putting me through SC (so I've got to stay for a few more months at least to get this!). Only downer is its a bit of a trek every day from home (could be worse could be mon-fri).Last edited by northernladuk; 23 January 2015, 15:56.

Good point :-)Originally posted by d000hg View PostIt's not a boom because your client asked if you're interested in an extension. It's a boom when you have the signature.

Sorry but your whining and general attitude seems to rather restrict the amount of celebrating that is worthwhile...
