    No. But there again, what's the context?
    If your company is the best place to work in, for a mere £500 p/d, you can advertise here.

      No. As it wont save your sanity. A few weeks makes no odds.

      But I am looking at new gigs : some on a lower rate. Its worth it for my sanity long term.

          A permie chap at one of my clients resigned and went on the social rather than carry on working for them.

            A contractor chap at a gig I was on years ago didn't get extended, he worked on for another three months unpaid. Client didn't care, the rest of us didn't care. This was in a time when you could pick and choose your contract, go figure...

              No.

              One - it's a renewal of < month

              Two - if you think that you'll recover your sanity within < month either (a) what ever it is isn't serious or (b) you're mental (although see highlighted above)

              Three - I'm not qualified to give this advice in any way

                WoW! Respect...

                One or 2 permies I know might have saved their sanity and their marriages had they made that decision...

                    After re-reading the post...I would like to change my answer to yes.
