    In the hunt again

    Going for one of my dream contracts, high rate, close to home and resets mileage and actually interesting work. The nerves are jangling. It's my first interview for 4 years as I've got the subsequent contracts word of mouth or returning clients.
    But I discovered nothing else but depraved, excessive superstition. Pliny the younger

    There is a general rule of "contracting" thumb that dream contracts don't work out.

    But don't let it get you down.
    I'm alright Jack

      second rule is that when they do turn up it is usually after you have put pen to paper on something else
      Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

      I preferred version 1!

        And by, 'resets mileage', I assume you mean it starts on April 6th,
        with your new 10000 miles personal mileage allowance...........

            I thought the second rule was we dont talk about dream contracts?

            Good luck Gibbon - these things DO work out, so fingers crossed.

              No that is well down the list - mine was definately 2nd. Yours is third at best.
