    Goodbye, and thanks for all the fish.

    It has been nearly two years since I stumbled on this forum and proceeded to annoy the heck out of a few people who thought I should not be allowed in their half the playground. I learned a lot and had more than a few laughs.

    Time to have a life clearout and go into rehab.

    I was only ever a bum on a seat but now have been offered a two year ftc. As it is five minutes from my front door, it is an offer I cannot refuse despite a salary that most of you would find risible.
    Thanks to all who have tolerated my presence and sorry to any who have wasted precious minutes of their lives crafting witty and crushing replies..
    I wish I could met a few of you, especially Mudskipper.
    Good luck all x

    I've no idea who you are. But give those fish back.

      You can still come to the meetups as a CUK Alumnus/Alumna

      That's if you can get time off work, of course

      Best of luck

        You'd be amazed how many on here are permies . You don't have to go just because of that!

          WSS. You can't get this quality of piss-taking anywhere else.

          OK maybe you can, but they wouldn't let you sign up.

          Edit: It's "So long, and thanks for all the fish" btw

            Are you sure? Can't we put this to a poll or something.

              Ask Brillopad, I'm sure he could arrange one.

                    I had to leave the dizzy world of contracting for a permie job last month and I receive just as much abuse here as ever.

                    Although, typically, I have very little time to post on here as these people expect me to work and I do not have long delays waiting for questions to be answered like in my previous client
