Only happened to me once at a large multi-national client co.
It was Xmas eve and like a true contractor, I was in billing, and guessing we'd get away early at 2pm or so.
Electricity went off at 10am, by 10:30 the boss told us to go and just invoice the day anyway.
The contractors who had chosen to take the day off were not pleased!Comment
