    A view from the agents' side

    This being a contractors forum, we all moan about the agents - quite often justifiably so. I have a couple of questions for the agents who are on contractorsuk.com.

    1. What are the things contractors do that really pi** you off?
    2. What would be the ideal qualities in a contractor?

    1. Spout a load of crap about them "being a real business".
    2. Much cheapness, plenty quickness.

              Perhaps CM can confirm the 'mini' bit?

                    If you think my attitude stinks, you should smell my fingers.
