This illustrates one of the reasons I prefer contracting: the
relationship between employer and contractor is about the work and how
well you can do it--not how long your butt's been in the chair or how
rah-rah your attitude is. I'd rather not work for a company that
regarded a job offer as a gift it magnanimously bestowed upon the
deserving.
