The pull of contracting

[malvolio]

I was positively hunted down by a Windows shop when most of my experience was on Linux - they're starting to see the light (and M$ are facilitating it)

Yes but the average agency drone won't do that...

But that wasn't the point I was making to the OP

What Mal says. There are always odd exceptions like this which are great when they happen but they aren't enough to base a long term contract career on.

I currently am in a similar situation but I didn't go contracting on that. I went with the knowledge I had. I then had to learn new skills between contracts then choose which contracts to take so I could use these skills in addition to my main skill.
