Nice work folks!

Same rate, keeps me going til the end of the year

Just negotiated a 10% mid-contract rise
Project budgets next year up 75%
Relatively niche skills so clientco asking me to commit to end 2010

By the law of averages I am now waiting for something to go horribly wrong...

Recently found out the project I'm involved in will be going through another build cycle until October, which could mean anything up to next February.

Bit sick of this contract now unfortunately

Think of the money!

although money is money and they haven't dropped my rate yet.

That's the way!

You're not supposed to enjoy it: that's why they have to pay you to attend.

Congrats!! Me too, keeps me ticking over until Mar.

New Year Party round your place?

[RichardCranium]

Same rate, keeps me going till the end of the year
