I was sat at the desk at client co today, overhearing a conversation between some manager and some woman.
They were discussing budgets, how much had been spent, etc. I heard things like, "total cost £xxx,000"... "4 contractors"... "X permanent staff"... some other mutterings, then the manager raises his voice a bit saying, "Eh? That's ridiculous! We're paying more for permanent staff!!"
The woman said, "Well, with the permanent people we have training costs, benefits, yada yada yada..."
Made me smile
