I don't have to work, so I can handle down time.Originally posted by alreadypacked View PostJust saying like!
It's easy to sit back after you get an extension and only start looking at review time. But if you have got yourself into a bad end date cycle, you need to decided if you are ready to take time off when the contract is finished or look for a new contract that will give you an end date when there are more roles.

What a ray of sunshine you are todayOriginally posted by alreadypacked View PostKeep looking for a new role, as bad projects usually end up dumping contractors when there are no role. i.e. couple of weeks before Christmas etc.
