      Sorry
      How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

              Something for the CV at least.

              Better than a 2 year gap or whatever.

              And if they like you maybe they offer a perm job or something.
