    I heard there was a chap called Darren who abused the staff car park. Might be related.

    I wouldn't say contracting is or should be about being better than permies. It's about being accountable for the delivery of your services and only those services agreed with the client. And only working when there is work to do.

    Maybe he's a very good consultant.

    Given what we all do for a living, it seems strange that you would suggest that a commodity price is applicable.

    I'm hoping an asian HMRC tax inspector reads that story and makes it personal.

    Can understand the bloke was miffed at being woken up, but the racist personal attack on the young woman is inexcusable.
