The gloss is certainly coming off for me.
When i started contracting in the early 90's, for the first time in my life, I used to enjoy getting up and going to a gig. After 14 years in the scientific side of the Civil Service, that was a bloody novelty, to actually enjoy what you were doing.
I think the gloss started to dull around 2004/05. Bobs, Agents, IR35, clients, managerial bulltulip, bloated projects delivering truckloads of useless documents.
Got sent a Bob RAID doc this morning which actually contained a risk that 'The environment would not be fit for purpose' with a mitigating action of 'Ensure environment is fit for purpose', with both being the responsibility of said bob and his team of bobs.
Contracting pretty much now sucks, except the money
