[thelist] Sub Contract Work

Memo from Martin P Burns of PricewaterhouseCoopers

-------------------- Start of message text --------------------

Good thinking, Michael - everyone goes home (relatively)
happy.

One thing to make clear to them, however, this is a one-off discount
for this specific situation, and your ongoing rate is what it was before.

Other useful learning for next time:
Get the scope in writing (blood is useful!) and signed off before you
boot up your machine, including that over-runs to the scope are the
client's responsibility.

Cheers
Martin

Thanx to all those that responded, I have sort of dealt with the problem.

I agreed to drop my hourly rate instead of reducing the number of hours I
had
worked.  This way there is documentation that the project took more hours
than
expected and I can use this if they raise the same bullsh*t in the future.

They tried to say the stuff up was because I have been dealing with two
different staff members and the lower ranked one didn't inform his boss
that he
had agreed to pay me for my additional time.
