Boom-ette (and a Q for NLUK)

[Lance]

Un-boomed. Paperwork hasn’t arrived yet and I’ve just heard they are bringing in a foreign resource to do it (one who has no knowledge of the project, but is cheaper)

"buy it cheap, buy it twice" springs to mind..

Agree with NLUK, definitely a rookie mistake.

Back to retirement, shame.

Un-boomed.

Client whose useless project manager said they didn’t need to extend me any further last month has had to get his boss’s boss to phone me asking can I please come back for a couple of months.

Question for NLUK’s accountant: This guy originally phoned me last week while I was on holiday in Italy and we had a preliminary discussion. Since I was there with one of My Ltd’s shareholders, and since it was a business call, can I expense my board meeting?

they'll want you back for longer when the cheapo Fubars it though

and you can charge more for sh1t shovelling.

That always ends well.

Still you might be getting a call in 2 - 3 months when everything has gone horribly wrong.

She charges double for HP! You think I want to spend a whole 2p?

Is that the meeting he has with your wife and the ketchup bottle?

I'll bring it up for discussion with your LTD's shareholder at our next afternoon meeting sometime this week.
