    About making a deal you weren't happy with? Or that someone offered you a gig when you really needed one?

    Either way, getting stroppy about it will just make you look a dick.

          The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world that he didn't exist

            After starting I assumed that this would be the case for everyone in the Team but have found out that the other consultants and contractors who have been working there for longer (bar some administrators) are working from home once a week. I'm not happy about this at all but also don't want to cause any friction during my first 2 weeks .

            How best should I approach this? Demand from my boss that I should be able to work from home and point to the fact that everyone else does, put up and shut up or speak to my agency? I feel like I'm being singled out which doesn't seem right.
            You need to analize how long these contractos are working on the client site, maybe they alreay gain confidence from them.

            You should prove your efficiency first.

            Regarding your question: No you should'nt refuse.

              I'm guessing a sticky with common acronyms would take all the fun out of flaming noobs...? ( also shut up - I already tried searching Google for it) 😁
