"Sherman, set the wayback machine to 1990" "Yes. Mr. Peabody" $34 per hour? You've got to be kidding. Boeing paid me that amount 17 yrs ago as a PERMANENT employee. Have contract rates really dropped that far below 2001 levels? I had better go suck up to my boss some more. "Boss, need a cup of coffee?" </snip> On the other hand it *IS* more than unemployment. My questions is a security clearance required? That will delay the start from 6-9 months. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html LEGAL DISCLAIMER The information transmitted is intended solely for the individual or entity to which it is addressed and may contain confidential and/or privileged material.
