    Scenario...

    Been supporting (yes answering the phones) certain apps on this contract.

    They have said they will extend me, only if i deliver set objectives of project managing and delivering transfer documents to another supplier.

    It seems to put me in an odd position, (i guess a valuable lesson to budding contractors) that ive got an extension to basically hand-over my duties and job to someone else.....

    Any thoughts?

              The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

              But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”
