    Real contractors don't post on here during working hours

    Since taking my last gig I'm swamped with senior management type stuff. Far too busy to loiter on here. So you lot must have really low end contracts, or are you all on the bench?

    Knock first as I might be balancing my chakras.

    Senior management stuff like visiting the job centre and explaining that you've done your best to find work but you really need that income support giro again?

      Those senior managers must be getting through coffee by the bucketload.

      Top tip: Get yourself a little notepad to write the order down. You might feel silly at first but it'll really help you in the long run.

        Oh you mean he has a real job?

        Listen Suity, if you want to move up in the world you'll have to add shoe polishing to your repertoire of Senior Management Assistance Competences. Get yourself down to Aldi and buy a budget bumper pack of shoe wax and brushes; before you know it you'll be Chief Janitorial Executive.

          Really, you think Chief Janatorial Executive is a step up from Senior Supply Chain Manager for the Executive Energy Levels division?

            Suity dear boy, everyone knows that the more senior you are, the less work you need to do.

            So mine's a large latte please. Chop chop!

                Yes. I mean no. No, definitely not.

                I'll just have my usual coffee thanks.

                  I thought the gig you were in was a vb dev job ? Or don't they trust you to code and get you to take notes in the meetings instead ?

                    We get paid for what we know, not what we do.

                    This is why we are all high earners with time to post on here.

                    Make that another Latte boy
