no, he won't. i told him i'd give him the same rate as last year, and he said that was fine. he has to clear it with his boss, but his boss knows me and knows i'm a hard worker and largely earn what they pay me, so i don't think i'll have any trouble like that. in fact last year i ended the project with a half-day of work only, and since we'd run over by nearly a week i said i'd give him the half day for free ; but since i'd worked late hours on several days he insisted i should charge it as a full day instead.

if i get another project between now and then i just might think about a chearp netbook though, because it would actually be really helpful for me to have my own computer for this project ; since i'm an outside contractor, i never know where they'll find a desk for me, and if i had my own portable computer it would make things a lot simpler ! i have to work in their offices because i need to consult with him frequently so it wouldn't be practical to work at home, but every year i have a different desk, and sometimes i have to move around during the project (depending on who is on holiday). |
