    I don't want to think about what they want you to do for £600/day *shudder*
    Sort out the mistakes made by cretins, most of the time.

    Easy money

    BTW - "hifautin", sounds like something one of the Waltons would say, either that, or one of the "close knit" family, in Deliverance.

    £600 PD+ can work from any location in the world, have to call into the office from "time to time" (as of yet undefined).
    Expected to bring at least 3 people in with me.

    I don't think of this as that "hifautin", but you may well do.

    Depends on your outlook.

    Apologies.

    I was permanent and made redundant (they were extremely generous), but good effort.

    Well, obviously, not that successfully, otherwise they wouldn't have ended up in Singapore
    In fact, the rate card won't be that different between those two locations as SGP workers are, now, quite expensive.

    So, might not be quite as you have put it.
