          **** that. I'd rather keep rinsing the public sector.

          25 years contracting off and on (18 years contracting) and never had to take a gig I had to stay away overnight. And I live in wales.

            This just gets better. The boss is discussing (and liking) the concept of duvet days.

              Yup - in addition I always seem to carry 5 days over so in reality I had 37 days this year plus B/H

              which is nice...

                I'm carrying 5 over and I've got 5.5 to use between now and 1st Jan!

                  Get them booked - with a bit of intelligence and some working from home I have made 5 days mean i get the whole 2 xmas weeks off - last day in office 20th Dec not back in until 6th Jan....

                  which is nice.

                  although I will probably spend most of it either drunk or wondering if it is to early to start drinking - maybe just get up later so there is less time between breakfast and beer o'clock...

                    Already done that! Which is very very nice!

                    It's my fault that I've not used them. Have to see what's happening meeting-wise over the next 3 weeks. See if I can squeeze 'em in...

                      COVID-19 could be bringing office work to an end. We could all be remote permanently. Equivalent of about a 7% payrise
