    Awful way to try and hook an inexperienced contractor.
    It would have to be for inexperienced contractors, as the gross rate they're then offering me is generally less than 3/4 of my net rate.

    Ah the fecking Tatas

    Anyway, replied that rate and spec are balls apart and wished them all the very best to find someone (Non-bob, Non-Naturalised, Non-ILRed) who will look forward to this role.
