Post #136,233 by deSitter 1/16/04 8:26:35 PM Reply	that blows When contracting I'd insist on at least 2 weeks between to "cool off" from the old one (at least when I could afford to be picky). What you're describing is impossible! I'd almost suggest asking the former employer to wrap things up in one week. -drl
Post #136,236 by ChrisR 1/16/04 8:35:28 PM Reply	Well, the story is a bit too involved While working on the company I'm leaving, I was moonlighting in the company I'm going to. Now the tables are turned: I'll be working full time on my moonlight job and then take the old job on a limited contract basis. Basically, I'll still have two jobs as before, but I'm swapping the relationship betwixt the two. You gotta confuse the PHB's outlook on life every once in a while. Rinse the relationships up and then recycle.
