Why would you just not hire someone as a part-timer then? Or casual? Or negotiate a retainer with a designer where they will "bank" the hours you pay for? Isn't a shared hire really just someone with two part-time jobs after all? I'm a freelance developer and I can tell you that instability can be a two way street. I'd be open to a part-time job with the right employer, provided I could continue freelancing in a sensible way (ie not directly competing, but not unfairly restricted either). Doubly so in the current economic climate. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Silicon Beach Australia" group.
