      Wait until the expenses are done.
      In fact it will probably work out best for the project, if no one turns up for the meeting

        Depends on what you want to be. A rebel / Moral guard? or a "team player" ?

        Patience is what differentiates contractors from the cattle

            After 16 mins boss man came on (not the the call leader) saying VPN is down hence no call leader which it isn't cos I'm on it and so are others, I look after it (out of my comfort zone!) and can see people logged in to it and active.

            Finished my expenses anyway, bonus!

              I hope you charge extra for that.

              Looks like the boss might have it in for yer, trying to smear your name, snake in the grass, watch him

                Turns out the 'call leader', a PM, doesn't know the difference between 'VPN' and 'Wifi' and couldn't for some reason connect to their home wifi. Not my problem.

                Tremendously exciting morning so far, one of the best ones since the time someone changed the safe code without telling anyone. I'm exhausted!

                    Nasty.

                    My ex once changed the safe word without telling me.
