      Why do you think we're all here???
      The squint, the cocked eye and clenched first are the cornerstones of all Merseyside communication from birth to grave

        In my first contract I'd done the job in a week. It was a 3 month contract and I called my agent to say that I didn't think I could string it out for the whole 3 months. The agent, of course, told me to never let them know.

        In the end I stayed there for 18 months, picked up a load of new skills, got some very usefull contacts and have done two direct contracts with them over the past few years.

          Write documentation.

          Copious documentation.
          Insanity: repeating the same actions, but expecting different results.

              Relax. Try to think about something else to take your mind off it. And if you can't, remember it happens to all men at some point.

              Oh sorry, we weren't talking about that were we?

                  Clearly you are "too" thick "to" understand the difference between these "two" words.
