Well said. I agree. I'll test the waters and jump out if it's not working. I'm still keeping my day job until I'm satisfied with coming on full time. Although, now that missiles are being tossed our way, maybe I should just be happy to be alive! Geez, I hope someday we all get along. Life's too short as it is.
Sorry, off topic comment but, I just heard about it and it's scary not for just usa but, for the whole world. Love, T On 6/20/06, Kevin Mulvihill <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

And in this city, bag boys at grocery stores are making $11/hr. Even way back in '97 when I was in my last corporate job, it was costing us $15/hr. just to have a temp come in and put papers in a filing cabinet. Is that how you see yourself? As unskilled labor??? Now if the idea is just that the guy wants to check you out and make sure you can do the work, then I might give him a few DAYS at $11/hr. and then revert to an honest pay scale if he wants to keep you... And this assumes that you don't have any references or much in the way of code samples to share. The real question then becomes 'how long is it going to take to get you up to speed?' If the guy is thinking several months, then you would clearly be foolish to accept that offer. If you don't respect yourself, no one else will either... And your getting 'up to speed' could take a very long time indeed.
