Had a call from a pimp today. Wanted a .Net project manager.
I humoured him. They want a PM that understands .Net. Ah ok. Bless him
Am I willing to relocate? Sure why not.
It's 3 days in Oxford, and 2 in Preston. Sure, why not.
It's £325 a day.
On your bike pal. Any company that wants a PM for that kind of money is not one I want to set foot in.
Before you know it you're writing code as well and writing test cases.
I pity the poor chump that is desperate enough to chase round the country, put up mileage and hotels and be worked into the ground for that money.
So, what are the classic lines from a pimp that have you running for the exit?
"High pressure, fast paced environment"
"Work hard but play hard"
"Unrivalled growth recently"
What phrases turn you off immediately from a gig?
