You could just play the WFH for a couple of days a week line for new gigs. Nothing to lose.
Kudos for taking a break to get fully better. Hope it works out well for you and look forward to your fully fit and ready boomed!

It's nice to take time off in the winter, head off to the sun in the New year.
You can post here about it being too hot in Feb. when everyone else is snowed in.

Take it easy bud, health over everything.Originally posted by JRCT View PostI had a brain haemorrhage in the summer and although i was back at work after 6 weeks, I've been struggling of late, so I've decided to take a break for a while. I handed my notice in last week and today is my last day on the contract.
Interestingly, on Tuesday I got an email from an Agent saying "Hi, we haven't spoken for ages. I thought I would see how you are, what you're up to. I've got a role that would be perfect for you. Client is ABC Ltd and the role is XYZ",
My reply "Hi. I'm about to take a break for a few months and I've just handed my notice in with ABC Ltd, doing XYZ".
It was kind of comforting to be leaving a role that, on paper at least, I'm ideally suited for.
Good Luck
