Wish I could, voice of reason, and I do hope that we will be forced to do it in due course. The main reason why I feel we can't take the jump unilaterally, is the 'micro-economy' we are working in. We are based in Lincolnshire and there are a great number of units, freelancers and consultants all after the same contracts with differing sizes of overheads. As things stand, we are only winning the minimum number contracts needed to maintain the fulltime positions we already have; we are trying to penetrate 'the market' beyond our traditional stomping ground, but progress is slow.
If you have any suggestions or are willing to share your experiences, however, I would be interested in talking with you.
