Myles Posted September 21, 2007 Share Posted September 21, 2007 My contract won't be extended (hitting the limit of how long the Bank keeps people on) - but they are offering me a permie position.

Hibster. Posted September 21, 2007 Share Posted September 21, 2007 I'm over the 2 year limit at VF so I can no longer claim schedule E expense but they seem to want me to stay.Β What do your agency say about finding you another contract role north of the border ?Β PaulΒ Supercheese R250Β Caterham pictures here π¬ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myles Posted September 21, 2007 Author Share Posted September 21, 2007 What do your agency say about finding you another contract role north of the border ?Β Haven't spoken to the useless* feckers yet.Β *They were pretty-poor when it came to trying to push through an increase at the last two extensions.Β I'm leaning towards risking it and going for another contract somewhere. The Bank is bonkers to lose my knowledge, but that's their lookout. I'm feeling rather jaded anyway - time for something new perhaps.Β I also need to find somewhere new to live - notice-to-quit (owner selling) kicks in two weeks after the contract ends...

Hibster. Posted September 22, 2007 Share Posted September 22, 2007 Myles - Well at least the flat is 2 weeks after the contract ends and not 2 weeks beforeΒ You may find your feckers are better when they realise that you'll not be earning them any more fees. They always have better staff on the new business side Β My employer did see the light with regards to knowledge walking out of the door, their usual approach is that contractors have no knowledge only skills x,y & z and any contractor with those same skills could step into the role at the drop of a hat with zero handover etc. The permies either get it or they dont and if your line manager doesnt then you dont have any good levers to pull when it comes to renewal/rate increasesΒ Β Β Northampton, that'd be a well know bank then ?
