5507Too many quoting for the same job during quiet time of the year. Most vendors who are always looking for the cheapest quote tend to want prices around 80pplm. I would rather stay at home and earn nothin, because that is basically what i would earn at the price.

You would have to be vetted before I could work for you, you might not pass my tests, also could you pay in 7 days

Might be a twat who is going home and the job is a perfect backload for them.
How stupid of them to quote a backload rate and make certain they get the job

AFTER the job? That's a novel idea, I thought it should be 48 hrs in advance otherwise how will you have time to spend it before you do the work?
