He might have had a contract like I did in the noughties, I rocked up about 9:30 did an hour or so's work, went to the pub for a nice lunch & pool then home about 5pm occasionally via the office.
Surprised the client offshored us, but they went from 1 outage a year to one a week of 24 hours...
Muppets!

Other than a few days between contracts, hit end of a contract last week and didn't ask for a renewal.
At some point will have to start applying and looking but right now this feels awesome.Tags: None
