    Life is sweet .....

    Have you ever noticed how permies are more that happy to take your money, but when it comes to paying out ....

    On Friday I was asked to take part in the company sweepstake - no doubt they thought that as a contractor I am minted and can therefore afford to subsidise their winnings - little did they know that I would pick the winner !!

    Oh, how I've enjoyed coming in this morning to collect my winnings !!!!

    Best not tell the taxman in case taking part in the employees' sweepstake is taken as a pointer to being inside IR35

        Yes, no doubt its a pointer to being a 'disguised employee' - along with eating the birthday cream cakes of the permies the other week as well

              I forgot to have my annual punt, so I've effectively won because I usually lose.

                Cash or Cheque

                    Would you trust a cheque from a bookie?
