Not if it was voluntary....Originally posted by DaveB View PostAnd all of them squarely inside IR35 based on D&C.

I contracted at an ivf clinic and due to shortages I was paid to wank for two days. However, when I went back to working in the IT team they kept sending me emails saying I should stop it now.Originally posted by Old Greg View PostI once spent 2 days stuffing envelopes @ £571.43 + VAT per day. The client hiring manager wouldn't provide a clerical person to do it, and I needed it done, so I spent two days at the desk opposite him, happily working away.
