            Recently found out the project I'm involved in will be going through another build cycle until October, which could mean anything up to next February. Bit sick of this contract now unfortunately - although money is money and they haven't dropped my rate yet.

                  That's the way!

                  You're not supposed to enjoy it: that's why they have to pay you to attend.

                    Just negotiated a 10% mid-contract rise
                    Project budgets next year up 75%
                    Relatively niche skills so clientco asking me to commit to end 2010

                    By the law of averages I am now waiting for something to go horribly wrong...
