Depends on how fit the lasses are.

And in your particular case, how blind.

I think it's more about not being a miserable antisocial tw@ and actually answering questions with at least a modicum of good grace.

You are an expert who will training a junior. There will be always a big distance between you and them.

Seeing more contracts talking about this. You will deliver the project whilst training, mentoring and passing on your skillset to the other team members (permies).

Your not going to get many renewals in these contracts, clearly...

You can tell people how to do things - that doesn't mean that they do it the correct way.

Heck I make my cash fixing the mess consultancies have charged millions to create before it blows up in a heap...

Given the typical random nature of staff continually leaving / being deployed to more urgent screw ups - training Bangalore is a guarantee for multiple renewals...
