    Last day

    And it'll be sad to leave a little. Probably nicest place I've worked for a while. Nice people, no grief, no getting treated like tulipe.

    Even got used to the commute/early starts (50 mins train - 90 mins door to door, out of bed at 5-45am).

    But the rate just killed me. Pity. In the end, didn't even give notice - new gig came up and contract naturally ends this week (didn't accept extension).

    New gig monday. 66% more money and 8 miles from home.

        Don't you just love being a mercenary? It's not about nice people it's about the ££££££'s or maybe that's just me

          Well aye. Leaving because of the £s. Its always nice to work somewhere where its decent though.

          Rather than clients who take the piss and permies who look at you funny.

            To be fair I've never experienced that, but then it could be because I'm really violent looking so people tend to not light my fuse

              That's worth at least three
