Extensions

So yes, yet again I’ve had my contract extended with the current place of work.

Thankfully it’s not the Cambridge one any more, and I started this new contract two weeks ago tomorrow. It was only a short-term stop-gap thing initially which was supposed to end on Friday – but now they want me for a few more weeks while the system goes live on the Intranet.

I must be doing something right – after all, I’m getting the work done (not, as Gordon suggested, “making a mess of it, to keep me in work” nor as Lionel suggested, “working slowly to make it look like there’s more to do”) and generally fixing the problems that had been generated by the last person to be working on the project.

It also makes the agency I’m working through for this contract happy, as it gets them more money – and also happily works as a reference for a couple of the other things they’re putting me forward for once this one’s done.

So all in all it’s going OK, and I must be doing something right. If only I knew what… *grin*
