Re: Sick Pay?
"You can be pedantic and split hairs"
I think it's necessary to do that. Firstly, although most contractors really do get the reality but it's the FUD version that affects permie and HMG's thinking. Secondly those contractors that don't get it and really do treat company income as personal income are the ones who are held up as proof that all contractors are evil. I strongly suspect that as soon as times get tough they drop out of the industry because they've spent the cash and don't have anything to fall back on but those who are in it for the long haul get tarred with the same brush.
