The whole, "We don't know what you'll be doing, or for how long, or if we really want to pay you what you're worth to get it done..." thing would put me off, too. <BR/><BR/>I think that the ability to stand firm and ask for what you want can sometimes make people mumble nasty things under their breath about you, but in the end, you can't bargain from a position of strength if you always cave in to other people's demands.<BR/><BR/>Money is abstract. It comes and goes. Integrity, on the other hand, is something you can't just buy and sell. Good for you, in terms of asking for what you want and sticking to it.<BR/><BR/>Good to be back here and reading your stuff, too. I've had a hard time freeing up enough time to blog lately, but we always hope for better things in the future.Patrick M.

I don't know the underlying reasons at their end, only my own for not 'getting on board'.<BR/><BR/>I do wonder sometimes though, how a company can miss the opportunity to be had by bringing the best team possible together, regardless of the 'physical' locations.<BR/><BR/>In another 10 years, remote work will be the norm, actually going on site will be the exception I think.Billhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07338910000372628114noreply@blogger.com
