Almost 5 days on the bench now... The most I've ever spent since I started contracting 5 years ago!!
There seems to be plenty of work out there all the same so I'm not too worried. Enjoying the time off..."Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience". Mark TwainComment
