How tough is it to get work on the cards these days?
Lot of work, noticeably station work, is all CIS/subby work.

How **** is it really out there for finding work?
I want to weigh up my options for next year.
 
always worked on the cards longun
have never had trouble getting work, not yet had to sign on or wait a week or 2 for work.
it is out there
 
In today's economic climate pricework is the only way forward.
 
Swifty,The Only Danger With Pricework Is You End Up Not Making That Much Money From It, You Are Priceing Work That Keen Any Hold Up Is A Disaster Everything Has To Be In Place And Ready To Go Before You Make Money.
 
The type of work we do doesn't have hold ups that I can't charge for. Shouldn't everything be in place before starting work anyway?
