Once again, it's time for the FNGT!

If you don't know how this works, . That link will take you to another site to give you some additional information and tell you about some of our off-site features. That's also the site where we will host the weekly guitar threads, should Poal go down.

NOTE: That site is by invitation only. If you want an invite, and you're a regular participant, then just ask Crazy, or myself.

If you do know what's going on, you probably don't need to click that link - but you may want to, to make sure you know of the other features, such as the archive or a separate forum that's invite only.

Remember, we are guests here on Poal. Let's act like it. If you're interested in supporting Poal, then .

There were lots of jobs cancelled and not much available at the time. I was looking forward to that job! I didn't want to do something else for a lot less right then. I should have been able to do what I was assigned

Hmm... They should have at least offered it to you when the job became available again. I mean, it's not like we were locked down forever, so surely the work got done eventually.

I had something very similar happen on 9/11. For reasons I can't get into, we were working on secure data and had to have at least one (preferably two) people on-prem for the duration of the contract. The job required clearance, so it was myself and one of my employees that was there on site.

Well, they locked the base down tighter than a drum head and it was months before we could even get back on base for our equipment.

On the other hand, the gov screwed up the contract and I made out (eventually) like a bandit because of it. They failed to uphold their end of the contract.

Still, it was frustrating and years before we were finally paid.

They cancelled the whole project, so there was no job to offer me.

At least you got to do the work eventually

We were even able to finish the project.

They canceled it and not just changed the date?

Hmm... That might make me less angry. I can understand needing to cancel a project.

I was thinking they delayed it and someone else ended up getting the work while you didn't get any work yourself.
