      Came across a perfect contract at the weekend. 1 mile from my house, 20% better rate than I am on, and a 100% perfect match with what my present contract is.
      They looking for someone who will quit the contract after a week then?

            He'd left in agency name, client name and number and the rate he was getting


            Mind you, £100 per day is hard to undercut!

              I wish Hays paid a £100 per day for MI5!

              Whoops.....

                I would have thought they'd use roombas to reduce the risk of being infiltrated.
                While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'

                  They're starting to use Roombas at the old peoples nursing homes here too.

                    Oh this one is getting bizarre(having editted the thread) in case the agency/client worked out based on the details I left.

                    The agent firstly didnt want to put me forward because I wasnt immediately available(as I am on notice) and so I was left with the impression I hadnt been put forward.
                    Then the agent just sent me the contact details for the client and told me to set my own interview up and let him know how I get on.
                    I left a couple of messages for the guy and heard nothing for three days. He then phoned me and we did a phone interview with me sat in the car.
                    He was very dull and I mean DULL! and after 15 minutes I started to say that it would be best if they went with someone who was immediately available because I wasn't. I emailed the agent to say thanks, but no thanks. I heard nothing for a week.

                    Agent has just emailed me. 'When can you start????'

                    Oh. Plus its at the end of my road.....
