In the process of securing a new contract and pimp wants to take me out for lunch next week. I've been offered this from other agencies in the past but always declined. I think I will do it this time and drink myself into a stupor at the pimp’s expense. Any of you guys and girls been wined and dined by pimps?

They use it more as a insider info session. Gain info from you as to how work load is going, chance of more people, up and coming projects. Every time i changed the subject to something else she would always end back onto that subject and line of questionsThats the way the cookie crumblesComment

Originally posted by DodgyAgentI have been on the other side of the "table". Most contractors are great but it is worrying just how poor so many of them are at conversation. They will happily sit through an entire meal and say absolutely nothing. Lunch for agents, believe me, can be hard work.Comment
