I don't know exactly what I'd do. If it was good money I'd
probably give it a go with different payment arrangements obviously.
Sounds interesting though, good luck and keep us posted. :-)

Subject: What would you do?
I worked for a company (who will remain nameless) roughly 3 years
ago. They wanted me to come on full time, and I had interest in doing
so,
however I ended up turning down the job offer. In my last conv
with the CEO he was cursing up a storm and threatened to sue me. About
8
months later my lawyer was able to collect payment for the final
invoice. That one conversation aside, we never had a problem.
That same CEO emailed me last night asking if I still did contract
work. How would you respond?
A few additional comments, I'll make:
a) He emailed me at an address that didn't exist at the time we worked
together. So, he put in more effort than a "blind" follow-up from his
contact database of past contractors.
b) I assume that he either does not remember our last conversation or
is
really desperate.
My first impulse is to ignore him completely. My second impulse is to
send a polite "No Thanks" message. There is a third voice in the back
of
my head that wonders if I should let bygones be bygones, proceed with
extreme caution, charge a higher rate, and insist on a "Cash on
delivery"
type of arrangement. I don't want to pass an opportunity, but I don't
want
to act foolishly either.
