But if the company's upper management continues to be unconvinced, it will hardly be the end of the world for you, and the irony of trying to sell them on an arrangement that might actually be less beneficial to you is considerable.
Hi Gene, The company's upper management wants me as their tech pubs manager. I have had a number of one-on-one meetings with VP of Operations and group meeting with the other managers. The question is how they reimburse me for my services--renewable contracts or direct hire. Contracting pays more, but working as a FT employee will pay enough that I won't have to go back to can beer or boxed wine.
