Hands up the real contractors out there

Actualy I am a "freelance consultant" aparently.

Do IR35 caught disguised employees count as contractors?

**WageSlave** · 8 August 2005, 15:11

Does a freelance filth merchant count?

I am a housewife, I bake gingerbread men all day long, and dream of Brad

I'm the bugger they get in to fix the mess left behind by all the previous buggers they got in to sort out the system that some daft bugger thought they needed.

I pity the poor bugger they get in to fix the mess I leave.

I think we need another poll for what kind of contractor.

For this poll, "Real IT Contractor" means you do IT Contracting whether IR35 caught, freelance consultant, whatever form. Oh, and it's nothing to do with that agency which we haven't seen for awhile.
