It is, yes. We've got a payment schedule set up every two months, not monthly valuations. Invoice for £1.5 million end of October, £2 million end of December. Then wait 150 days for it! All very odd.
Because those that work for us are on 30 day terms. We're not getting paid but have to pay our suppliers and sub contracts in the meantime.
I don't get involved either. I leave her to it and hover around with a drink in me hand. I do Christmas day breakfast though. Full English hit, we have the main meal late afternoon.
I suppose as long as your firm are big enough and the client pays on time then there’s no real issue.
They wouldn't **** us over, they are just completely chaotic. Programme means **** all and there are design changes almost daily and on a whim. Goes against everything I'm used to. It's almost enjoyable. Almost.
I was driving home yesterday when I came up to one of those half barrier level crossings. The red lights were flashing and the barriers were on their way down so I pulled up sharply. Suddenly this car full of Scousers pulled out and tried to beat the lights and barriers. They got half way across when a large fully laden goods train hit them, the car disintegrated and all the occupants were killed instantly. I sat there open mouthed and thought "Jesus, that could have easily been me!" So this morning I've sent off my train drivers’ application form to Network Rail!!! Merry Christmas
Yep. I've got a bottle of Courvoisier too, some demerera sugar cubes, Angostura bitters. So I'll be making champagne cocktails for breakfast too. Will probs be pissed by around 9am
