    So I went into the office yesterday. My work insisted I leave after two days when I gave a week's notice. They told the agency I was unprofessional because I complained in stand up that I didn't get Azure access after four months. Basically the agency said they refuse to pay me, so I agreed to split the difference with the agency so we are both out of pocket. Had lunch with the new work, seem like good people, looking forward to my first decent contract of 2023.

      Did you keep the laptop? Don't. You're way better than that crappy piece of equipment.

        No, I was careful to be fully compliant with everything they said, went into the office yesterday, sat there all day, confirmed who to tell I was leaving the notebook behind. I made sure while they were unprofessional, no one could criticize anything I did

          I think I would have wiped the laptop with a clean image of whatever OS was on it.

            Reminds me of a contract where they had me answering someone else's phone (they put her phone on my desk); even though none of the calls were for me. No (to anyone's serf mentality). Same happy ending.

            "Before entering on an understanding, I have meditated for a long time, and have foreseen what might happen. It is not genius which reveals to me suddenly, secretly, what I have to say or to do in a circumstance unexpected by other people; it is reflection, it is meditation." - Napoleon I

              I would've asked how long does the wait period have to be, before--from their point of view--your complaint goes from "unprofessional" to "entirely justified".

                So the justification of me being unprofessional is that I was asked to write a confluence guide for new starters and I gave dispassionate advice on how to convince the IT dept to let you have SQL Server (they told me it's server software for a month) and how to stay busy waiting for them to help you
