Nope, you agree on a fee for the duration of the contract. A contract can be hours, days or years.

Can you elaborate? I'm not sure what you mean.

You can always throw more people/kit at job, making a 'days' work into a half day. If I was getting a contractor in on a day rate the amount of expected days would be agreed before hand. If we finished a day ahead of schedule the contractor would still get the days. If the contactor took four days to do the agreed three days work, they'd get three days money. I'm not sure day rates work in domestic arb.

Pics or it didn't happen.

It seems to be one of those cat in bag moments. Once it's out it isn't going back in. Medical records should remain private. There's a load of things I've told my doctor that I wouldn't tell another soul.

Crap example: If I worked for an insurance company and it came to light that you, as a prospective client had a higher than normal chance of developing a debilitating (costly) condition, I could make money by either avoiding the risk altogether or by charging you more money for cover. At present I think it comes down to per-existing conditions. There are probably better examples but that's the gist of it.

In a nutshell yes, your medical data has immense commercial value. Access to it has the potential to allow people to make money by either selling you something or denying you something.

It's a similar amount of time on site even if logs are left there. I would reduce price a bit though if I didn't have to remove them.

I'd leave it to the tree co. to dismantle. Cost will vary. I'd want 400+VAT.

Maybe, maybe not. Once that data has gone it's gone. Although ID is supposed to be scraped from records, history shows that hackers are a resourceful bunch. There is a significant risk of Health information being misused. Not so worrying if it's Tesco trying to sell you some discount hobnobs. I'll be opting out of sharing data, If you want to then fair enough, if not then also fair enough.

I didn't know Brewdog had sacked their staff off too. That's a shame as there's half decent beer in their pubs.

I added the link for the benefit of other people who aren't as meticulous as yourself. Of course it hasn't received any publicity, there's no way that they're selling off the NHS.

" Opting out If you don’t want your identifiable patient data to be shared for purposes except for your own care, you can opt-out by registering a Type 1 Opt-out or a National Data Opt-out, or both. These opt-outs are different and they are explained in more detail below. Your individual care will not be affected if you opt-out using either option. Type 1 Opt-out (opting out of NHS Digital collecting your data) We will not collect data from GP practices about patients who have registered a Type 1 Opt-out with their practice. More information about Type 1 Opt-outs is in our GP Data for Planning and Research Transparency Notice, including a form that you can complete and send to your GP practice. This collection will start on 1 July 2021 so if you do not want your data to be shared with NHS Digital please register your Type 1 Opt-out with your GP practice by 23 June 2021."

It could be down the new amazing trade deal we have, also breweries have scaled things down. No pubs = no profit. I'd still rather chop a bollock off than give Tim Martin any coin.

We can all help him out by avoiding his lousy pubs. He laid off loads of his staff and told them to work at Tesco. You reap what you sow.

I know someone who bought one to service his own wind turbines.

Cummings is in arse covering and shift the blame mode. He's a weasel. He changed his personal blog to make it look like he predicted covid. Guns are out for Boris though. Gove was the original choice for the top job but nobody would vote for him, even over Corbyn, so BOJO was activated.

It seems like Boris is going to be a goner soon and Cummings is trying to reframe himself. Cummings and Gove are hand in hand. Gove's wife works for Murdoch inc. Jeremy Hunt has ben quite vocal about the governments mishandling of the pandemic. I reckon one of those two will be PM pretty soon. https://twitter.com/Dominic2306/status/1396092284857376768
