    fireworks !!!

    I'd be happy to stay in this gig with a 10% rate reduction. The free entertainment just gets better !

    Another contractor and the PM just had a blazing row that was edging to nasty and personal, only me in the room to witness it. Both have since consulted me on my opinion on the other, I rolled out my blank face and shoulder shrugging routine.

    My god I love contracting, erm erm hang on a minute, no I don't, I need a holiday

      How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

          Amazingly, you'd get a kicking in the public sector for using this term.

              Despite a lot of evidence to the contrary, everybody has a brain, some just can't use it, either through choice or circumstance.

                Really? Seriously, try as I might I can't see how it could possibly offend anyone.

                The only thing I can think of is that PC epileptics might have a fit if they heard it.
