Until the bombshell about canning my contract early I was all up for it. Now I'm scanning jobserve to see what it's like out there. I love working at this client though and it would be a good chance to upskill at their expense for a few yearsOriginally posted by BackupBoy View PostAre you taking the perm shillings?

Are you taking the perm shillings?Originally posted by VirtualMonkey View Postyeah. I';m being told I'll be canned a month earlier than my contract end date (should have been end of April)
they've offered perm at a really quite fantastic salary though... but really wanted that last month of contract rate with them

I think you will find the use of the word banana is now racist and so you should be banned
or something

Bounced. No banana.
Just been given 4 weeks notice by a british telecommunications company.
Bit surprised to actually get that much notice.
Slightly disappointed to not make it to planned contract end-date of March 27th, as invoice payment would have landed on April 3rd.
So be it. Onwards.Tags: None
