You missed the fact that getting paid to not work puts you inside IR35Originally posted by dwm009 View Post...just went off at ClientCo. All evicted by rather portly looking fire warden (he couldn't possibly be an actual fireman!).
Spent 30 minutes in the coffee shop around the corner. ClientCo PM bought me a coffee and I'll still be invoicing for the half hour.
So, did I miss anything??

All the fatties here are fire wardens too. Maybe they think they'll be first to hit the ground when they have to jump out of the windows?Originally posted by dwm009 View PostAll evicted by rather portly looking fire warden (he couldn't possibly be an actual fireman!).

Went off at our ClientCo a week back, nobody moved...Tests are Monday, this is Wednesday so I walked over to Fire Panel to take a look at location of alleged fire & beggar me, it wasnt even marked up.
Wandered to another building for coffee...no roll call out front...good job it turned out there was no fire. Only found this out when I came back & sadly the building was still standing! With that, it was time to head off
wahey!
