Who is working where?

[TykeMerc]

I live North (Yorkshire) and am currently working 300 ish miles South so not entirely commutable .

For most of my years as a contractor I refused to work outside a commutable distance, or had field role with a home base.
I got lucky on a 1 monther that ended up at 3 years which had 3 sites under a mile from home when my kids were small.

Umm, where's the option for English but live in Ireland, Commute to London ?

Would that be East/West instead of North/South ?

Best gig I ever had was 18 months in the south of Spain working at two locations, one in Gibraltar and one in Marbella, living in digs halfway between and not in touristville.

I did consider that but decided not to count them. This is CUK after all. I was trying to get a gauge on those who live or work in the UK.

How about an 'Im from India over here on an ICT' button??
Youd need a much longer graph though.

Was there something about the "UK" part of "Contractor UK" that confused you when you joined?

No- Im a contractor and from the UK. Got it??

Live in Winchester, commute to London. For the last two years have been staying up in town midweek but reverted to commuting so I can remember what the missus looks like.
