    There's never a rush.

    "Take it easy", as my carribean friend would say. Before lighting a spliff.

    (which I never do, I better add..)

    Get yourself a 2 days per week remote working contract for the summer.

    I was in a similar boat. I was quite looking forward to a few weeks sat in the garden enjoying the weather but I landed a short gig that takes me right up to my holiday.

    Now I sit in clientco office without A/C and the strong sun pouring through the window at me sweltering in my suit

    It's a matter of gut feel, but I had a couple of nibbles when I uploaded my CV and left it visible on one board for a few days.

    I don't think there'll be a problem once I've opened it on all the boards.

    started a topic One week left on my contract

    One week left on my contract

    And I haven't got that extension paperwork through yet.

    But it's lovely out and I'm on holiday in a couple of weeks - I might hold off putting my CV out on the boards and enjoy a few weeks in the sunshine.
Working...
