    - make nice with key people, hand out business cards so they can "get in touch" if it all goes tits up and they want someone good to fix it

    - copy anything useful from client network to usb

    - clean and organise my laptop (i never seem to have chance usually)

    - get timesheet/invoice signed

    - leave shortly after lunch

    Fair enough; I’ve had customers say they don’t mind me filling in a whole day at the end, seeing as I’ve often done a bit extra in the last week just to make sure things are properly handed over and documented.

    1) Get timesheet signed.

    2) Clear browser cache on client PC.

    3) Invite the key people to lunch.

    4) Leave early and celebrate freedom.
