    Slow start to the year but picked up a 6 month contract in June so 150 days billed. Still comfortable and got a 6 months extension starting 7 Jan so here’s to a more profitable 2019.

    259 ish. Done lots of horrible 1/2 day 'outage' weekends this year.

    I have 10 weeks left to run on this current contract then i'm having a few months off. I just need to somehow crawl to the finish line.

    Concurrent clients for the win! And all WFH

    2019 is likely to be lower, single client so far and on site working

    And for the record, my manhood is enormous.

    Past couple of years it has been 220 days, but this year has been 237 days, despite having at least 9 weeks worth of holiday including the end of year furlough. Client overtimey goodness, and plenty more coming next year.

    Bill by the hour and works out at 149 days (if 8 per day) but at the end of the year, the important thing is the nice large 6 figure sum invoiced...

    I aim for about 160-180 days a year and managed 215 (still xmas eve to go.) Wasn't my highest annual total ever but it's my highest invoiced total thanks to a nice large rate rise in early summer.

    280 for me..... I won't get into too much detail about how that happened.... Let's just say I was lucky with one of my clients.
