    Red Dawn was right - most of you are "glorified typists".
    I think I speak for all my fellow contractors - to classify our noble profession as 'glorified typists' is quite frankly - unacceptable.

    Please do use terminology which does reflect our true status eg 'Hookers with Keyboards'.

    I thank you.

    You lot pratt around pretending you are the Masters of the Universe but are just a bunch of pseudo-employees.

    IT Contractor == someone who couldn't set up and run a real business if their lives depended on it.

    What real entrepreneur works through 'Agencies'?

    Red Dawn was right - most of you are "glorified typists".
    Oooh. 'Ark at him!
    handbags at dawn, boys.

    It got deleted within about 15 mins...

    I'd read something on the web that compared the British to the Empire, while the plucky young American States were the Republic or some such nonsense.

    Someone got very annoyed with the thread & got himself/herself/itself banned in about 5 posts.

    Good luck with this board!

    I'll go away now.
    You may be the new business big shot but you certainly do not understand basic communication skills. Are you sure you are not AtW?
