If you want it in a plastic container you have to pay extra, I'm guessing you're happy with a jiffy bag.

Shouldn't that be a Jizzy bag?

Be warned though, it will probably produce some tree hugging , lefty hippie nutter.

Congrats on the contract.

Sorry to hear about the charred penis and incurable impotence.

Are you offering to sort out his wife?

I edited my post above a bit.

I don't really want to share who it is, as some people on this forum may well be contracted to their suppliers
But it's a major multinational charity that's a household name.

An example of horribleness of some businesses is that they have been sold software that they could have got at 20% the price , direct from the supplier - as they give 80%+ discounts to charities. These guys give them 10% off the usual RRP and then CHARGE them to install it, trousering the 90%+

It happened by chance, I went to them looking for a 3 month voluntary stint as a "field agent" working in the front line in a developing nation. The market was slow and I needed to get out of the corporate world and feel like I'm doing something to help - rather than just preaching in forums. Once they saw some of my past clients, I was invited to talk to the I.T. department.

It's not a usual area for me, but its the last area I'll work in at this level - so when I move into my next specialism I'll have experience in Public sector, Finance, Small Buiness, Not For Profit / Charity and Multinational Blue chip.

After this I'm hoping to hire people and hopefully ride an "insourcing" wave....... Well it doesn't hurt to hope does it?

It doesn't, I operate at 50% my usual rate and run a "100% cost recovery" model - If I don't save them my rate + extra, then I go.

I've saved them 12 months worth (of my contract) already, thus the renewal .

It's amazing how many outsourcing, or service providing companies properly rob unsuspecting victims like my current client.

Brillo, cheers for the smile - I'd rep you every day if the ruddy system would let us :P

Interesting - can you share who it is? Is charity something you specialise in or is this a special case?

At least you didn't throw the tea over your manager.

Though I am a bit surprised you tried the spilt tea excuse. We all know you wet yourself with excitement.

What is the charity of your dreams? The kind that splashes out £100s a day of donations on a contractor?

[Scoobos]

I'm curious about the 'charity of my dreams' thing.

Nymphomaniacs anonymous? Really?

(sorry about the speeling. I'm a bit Thursday'd)

Yeah it was a bit cheesy, got a bit over excited.

[Scoobos]

Cheers
