So, I’ve now finished working at the current place through an agency.

And today I start working at the current place for myself, albeit still with Parasol as the umbrella company that handles all the invoices, tax, NI, and the multiplicitous malarkey that would be additional responsibilities for me if I were simply self-employed.

I’m now here for at least another two months, probably three – and quite possibly six, as they’re already mid-discussion about that one. Absolutely barmy. Particularly when you also consider that I didn’t get the permanent position (doing the same thing) but I’m still fine for doing it as a contractor. For twice the money I’d have been paid as a permanent employee.

Still, if they’ve got cash to throw around, I suppose I might as well be the recipient of some of it.
