    Not going home yet

    Not until I’ve squeezed every last billable hour out of this contract. Am I a cynical b@st@rd?
    And what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument? Dodgy Agent, 16-5-2014

        We'd expect nothing less.
        Where are we going? And what’s with this hand basket?

                  Client has just signed my time-sheet for march and not even looked at it!

                  Makes me wonder if I am trusted enough that I could be a little more .... inventive with my time-keeping

                  After all, there is a budgeted amount on the PO, and the way things are going, I am not otherwise going to use all of it.

                    I've just done a bit more work. I think I'm done now.

                    Have also filled in timesheet, recieved glowing reference from numpty manager, scanned and mailed timesheet and big juicy final invoice to agent and posted on CUK.

                    Quite an exhausting day really.
