Never, ever, ever nor has any contractor I have ever worked with. Saying that the longest contract I've worked was 1 1/2 years. IMHO the IR35 stuff you see is just companies trying to sell you advice and consultation and build a

Usually 3 to 6 months (unless you specifically go for a horrible couple week contract) and every contract I've worked has rolled on or been extended.

Come 17:30 work ceases to exist to me and my normal life takes over. I work to live, not vice versa. It saddens me this isn't the way for most.

Where do you go for your contact leads in NL? I know the London market well but find it hard to find any decent Euro contracts.

I moved from web dev perm jobs in the west mids, down to London and started contracting around 6 years ago. It's singlehandedly the best decision I ever made, tripling my salary. And bar a few of months after I went to Asia for a yea

Funnily enough that's actually what I usually do but forgot to mention - I took a year off work and went around SE Asia, and regularly take months off at a time. Writing it down now, maybe I don't have that much to moan about :)

This rings true. I'm 30, have a well paid programming job, but I just don't care that much about it anymore. I used to be so passionate and enthusiastic. But now I feel like there's more to life than banging out code. Unfo

London is silly. I'm a contractor on a good rate and I can't afford to live where I want around Hackney. A 3 bed is ~600k, a 2 bed ~500k.
