Corrected that for you.

Hmmm, my wine cabinet's looking a bit threadbare at the moment.

Quick work Mich, we've barely had time to feel sorry for you missing out on a couple of interviews and you're already back on without even touching the bench.

Personal contacts, or just hit the Jobserve jackpot?

Lots of good contacts with some pretty heavyweight project managers and interim managers; you know, the types that get hired in by directors when projects are going all pear shaped. It's good to cultivate some contacts among that kind of people as if you're any good they'll call you again when they need someone they can rely upon.

Thanks all. The market in Holland seems to be improving. More work around and rates are improving too; not the same kind of money as a year ago, but going in the right direction.

Finished old contract last week. New contract and clientco, starting thursday. Rate not bad either.

Downside; it's a bank. Still, can't be too choosy.

Well done Mich
