Relax. Try to think about something else to take your mind off it. And if you can't, remember it happens to all men at some point.
Oh sorry, we weren't talking about that were we?

In my first contract I'd done the job in a week. It was a 3 month contract and I called my agent to say that I didn't think I could string it out for the whole 3 months. The agent, of course, told me to never let them know.Originally posted by DiestlWhat do you guys do if you get way ahead in a project and still have months left (if the clients non the wiser what stage you are at)?
In the end I stayed there for 18 months, picked up a load of new skills, got some very usefull contacts and have done two direct contracts with them over the past few years.
