    Because they're online time sheet now has an extra drop down which coincides with the information I've seen on the contract the client has signed (which I've seen....ooops)

    So unless they've got a doppleganger, or we're in invasion of the body snatchers territories they're expecting the real me to turn up

    That and the manager on site was pestering me to find out if my contract was being extended, because they've got work they want me to do. So if they wanted rid of me, they wouldn't ask me to pester the agency

    What they do with their customers (clientco) is not the same as what you do with your customers (the agency).

    Normally they agree on the day the contract runs out then ask you if you want to renew, not renew with the client and not bother to tell you

    They really work for their money the muppets
