And the other place you can negotiate is benefits. If they can't offer better concrete benefits, ask for more vacation time.

When we've had our phone conversations, the theme that persisted was that you wanted off of the computer and out into hands-on work, training people. That's a big deal for you and I think if that's really what this job is, it sounds like an awesome opportiunity. But you did mention the company having some issues, right? Are those resolved?

Yeah, another week of vacation would definitely be appreciated, especially if I'm going to try and stay involved with Historic Green. Is a week of vacation roughly equivalent to $1K?

I just talked to my HS friend who did accounting for them for about a year. His take is that they were taking rather more risks than he really liked, but not necessarily doing anything wrong. He recommended that I go for the ride, knowing that it might not be around forever. But you know, if I get a year of experience out of it and a move to New Orleans, could be worth it.

Depends on your yearly salary, no?! :)

Would a business-minded Bitch be willing to read my email request for details and see how it sounds? My adrenaline dump has faded and lo, I am tired. Cannot brane, the dumb is creeping in. I should have a rough draft in 10 min or so.

Vortex, if I was going to have a first-born and you wanted it, I would owe it to you. My dad is giving me some more things to think about and include.

Oh, and smonster..

I just now watched that for the first time. Will have to do it again on a faster connection.

Vortex, just now insent. I'm going to walk Frankie and go to bed - if you can't get to it until the morning, that's okay. And THANK YOU. It takes a village to raise a smonster, apparently.
