      Then definitely do what I said. I can't imagine a better way of making friends with your male colleagues.

      The women might not be so impressed.
      Will work inside IR35. Or for food.

        How about making a list of men and rating them on geekness?

            That might be difficult if you're a woman. All the geekier men (and this is IT) will run away from you.

              As a freelancer you've got to set the right image from the start. If you don't own one, hire a Porsche for your first day's arrival. And ensure your shirt pocket is stuffed full of £20s.
              Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!

                      Unfortunately I'm not contracting on this one, that would have been too much to expect; but when I do contract again, a flashy car is top of the list.
