My contract ends this week and my manager said they'd like me to stay for few more weeks to complete the work, however, they haven't confirmed it with the agency yet.
I asked the agency to contact the client and the agency said he has booked a call with the client for in mid next week to sort out the extension.
obviously, my contract hasn't been extended yet but the client had said they'd need me few more weeks so what am I supposed to do next week on Tuesday as the agency hasn't confirmed it with them my new rate and duration of the contract yet?!
There are 2 other factors affecting this:
* I haven't got any other job offer at the moment as I didn't have time looking for one
* I had asked the agency to have about 30% rate rise as my rate was below average (from £300 to something around £400)
So now I have 2 options I think:
1) I say I can only come to work when the contract is signed and a new rate is agreed, then looking for a new contract with a better rate until they respond back to me. What if they don't extend it until another week and I loose 5 days of payment?!
2) I go on the client site on Tuesday and just be there until they sort out the contract with my manager as the manager had said they need me there?!
what if they don't agree with my new rate? If they didn't rise the rate then I still work there and at the same time I look for a new contract with a better rate. When a new contract is found then I give my 1 day notice immediately.
Perhaps the second is the best option?
Thanks,
