    And yes - client is paying an attractive premium for me to provide my services over the live events.

      Mate of mine worked for Jap company. They asked/told him a week before to cancel his holiday. All they did is pay the money he lost. His Mrs went nuts with him......

      Same - got made redundant few months later.
