      I was an IPSE Consultative Council Member, until the BoD abolished it. I am not an IPSE Member, since they have no longer have any relevance to me, as an IT Contractor. Read my lips...I recommend QDOS for ALL your Insurance requirements (Contact me for a referral code).

              It is not the client's fault that you chose the car you own and that you chose not to take two buses and a train. Those are your choices.

              It is not the client's fault that you did not take the laptop home with you.

              It is perfectly legal, because it was your choice not to bring the laptop home and it was your choice not to take buses and a train.

              As a contractor, you take courses in your own time, at your own expense.

              Are you permanent staff or are you a contractor?

              I don't blame him for getting annoyed with you, it seems you're trying to shaft them and are not interested in being a professional businessman dealing with another business.

                I look forward to your all knowing and likely sarcastic and unhelpful reply.
