    The permies are quids in!

    Manager has just swaggered round the office handing out those grubby perforated edge envelope things they put in Sunday paper's supplements. You'd swear they all got golden tickets and not another 50 quid net per month! Bloke next to me has already got the calculator out to see how much more debt he can buy....

        No bonuses here. They even have to pay Scarlet Jack the coalminer some money for the privelege of negotiating their 2.3% !!!

                Recently secured a 6 month extension - rate as before. Will take me to almost 2 years with this client though.

                  Hello Xen, where have you been hiding?
                  I am not qualified to give the above advice!

                  Step back, have a think and adjust my own own attitude from time to time
