The Work in Progress



You may recall my mentioning the fact I work as a contractor within the financial services industry and have been on a number of contracts since my redundancy early in 2009. My current contract was due to come to an end on 11/11/11 (I could not have planned that if I tried!) but this evening my boss informed me that they would need me until at least December 23rd and probably longer. I am very pleased at this turn of events and so will be able to keep the wolf from the door for a while yet!

Great news! I can understand the gloomy feeling of the spectre of unemployment. Things are looking shaky here again, with about 12% laid off within the past two months - hopefully the worst has passed.

Hi Bob,

It is most welcome to be sure!

Many thanks and all the best,

Hi EG,

It is the contractors lot to be seemingly always on the lookout for your next contract so any stay of execution is welcome - if only for a few weeks!

I hope you swerve the situation at your place!

All the best,

DC
