Reply to: Why are people saying the market is tulip

There is no one market, making this kind of thread meaningless unless you specify which market you are talking about. The market for skill A might be booming and for skill B there might be nothing.

He meant the market for "general biatch, dogsbody & gimp"

So for one of the agents is like going back to the 1990's wanting proper references before putting me forward.

No problem with that I know the client, another contractor I've previously worked with is already there and its as local as I will sensibly get and the calls are actual reference calls rather than attempted sales calls but I'm struggling to see what the calls actually achieve.

Previous manager is now a friend, contractor who is already there wants another competent person and friendly face to chat to and I was sat 3 feet away when the other reference was taken.....

Where will you be travelling down from?

Got an interview today for a local role at a bloody massive rate (so massive I am gonna ). I didn't even apply for the role, it came to me through LinkedIn. Also they are willing to wait for me to finish current project

Whether I get it or not doesn't make a difference to the fact I am interviewing for a genuine role at a rate so high I might cry. Good signs. However, I think the market is demanding the experience and skills which is probably why the market is looking good to us....

Meanwhile Zeity has just had two emails, one from R*ch*rd J*yce about yet another mechanical cad ...

What in the world is a mechanical cad?

A robot who runs off with your g/f, and never returns your best set of golf clubs they borrowed?

No, a small village called London.....
