No more subsistence.

You haven't factored in extreme laziness and that I didn't take packed lunches when I was permie, so I'm not starting now.

But you can't afford to be lazy when it comes to maximising your profits!!

(looks at the icons on the right to see if there's one for money-grabbing. Sorely disappointed to find out there isn't)

I did a calculation once that if the cost of a packed lunch is less than 80% of the cost of buying lunch (i.e. what the business has spent on it after deducting tax), then even after taking into account the difference in Corp Tax and shopping for ingredients, you're better off taking your own lunch.

But I may not have factored everything in, so I'm happy to be proved wrong here!

Subsistence to. As it's now your permanent place of work.

I agree. I'm delighted it's been extended. I've never had to work away from home... yet. So, I'm very lucky in that regard.

In that case:

BOOMED!

Thought it was just travel expenses that were knocked on the head after 2 years? Subsistence too?

Just change your limited company


Ohh not so simple

80%-85% of something is better than 100% of nothing. We've all done it.

Had my contract extended on Friday, which means I'll go over the 24 months. So as of today I have to walk to work and eat roadkill.

Plenty of pheasants on the roads of Yorkshire.

Spring is back!

On the plus side, think of it as an opportunity to get more exercise and eat less, potentially saving the NHS thousands because they won't have to treat your for obesity and/or diabetes. Do it for the good of the country, man!

Only to pay the spineless middle level managers?
