    Agent trying to work out my income for role

    Hmmm. So agent phones. Rate is £100 lower than normal for me and it would mean at least a few nights week away.

    So agent has now emailed me with his 'estimate' of how much hotels, petrol, tax costs and asked me if £x per month is enough to live on.

    Obviously struggling to get someone.

      You do make me cringe PC.
      Practically perfect in every way....there's a time and (more importantly) a place for malarkey.

        Exactly. I was tempted to mention my £5K/month coke habit to see if he'd factored that in.

          To which there is only 1 reply.

          Yes I can live on that amount, but won't work there for it...

              Indeed used to make me laugh when I was in the recruitment and umbrella game listening to some of the salesman try and sell this sort of tulip --- like the guy/girl on the other end of the phone cannot work it out themselves..


              The answer is NO now piss off with your pointless sales tactics (fookin leeches)
