Oh no!!!!! Sorry to hear that mate

Good luck

I've been expecting that call for a week or so.I don't mind too much: I could do with a break, I have a bit of a plan B in the works that I could do with putting some effort into, and the market for what I do seems pretty healthy.

Originally posted by gingerjediI really like it here, its been 2 years and close enough to home not be bothered about expenses, it wouldn't normally bother me but we're expecting a baby and I really wanted to get past that before the prospect of working away from home comes about. I've heard that out of a total of 15 across site 6 are staying so fingers crossed ...it hasn't rang yet, I feel sick
Nah seriously no contractor should be afraid of being let go, just means another chapter in the story.
I know what you mean, though, a little bit of stability is nice, just not essential.
