Do you take mercenaries then 😀

Ya’ fergot the 2 key (hyphenated) words before mercenary "high-priced" 😆 😆

[Andy Shiers]

Ha 😀
I’m only wanting to earn a meagre crust Gov’ 😯

[Savante]

scotbeve, "high-priced" is just a pair of words (adjectives or adverbs??) and at the end of the day, it’s just a collection of two words connected by a straight line. I don’t think it’s in anyones interest to pay any attention to what is effectively a short black squiggle on a piece of paper…. 😆

by comparison with staff positions however, I don’t think I know of a truly "high-priced" merk in the market at the moment (in the traditional sense). When you compare their day-rates to the effective rates of a staff-rov position, there’s little difference….. what is there -maybe a 5-10% diffreence when you take into account holiday entitlement, matched pension contributions, etc??? Hardly anything to write home about when you consider that most merks have to do their own books at the end of the year and pay a couple of grand to an accountant, commercial insurance, etc?

hmmm…… food for thought on a saturday morning????
