What's an antiquated programmer to do?

[scaeagles]

Absolutely. I've decided that today I'm going to send off an email to my contact asking for specifics of an offer, for confirmation of a certain amount of flexibility in the work schedule, their approval of continuing a small amount of contract work for my current client on the side, understanding of my desire to keep coaching....all that.

One advantage is I know the guy who will be hiring me pretty well both personally and professionally. His integrity is unquestionable. I also considermyself relatively perceptive, and I met and observed a whole lot of people. They were all....happy. I don't think they could all be that good of actors.
