[Anon TWer <anon_twer -at- hotmail -dot- com>]

I don't usually write like this, have been TWer long enough. Don't use this as my writing sample! These are the facts: 
I left a job.
I was salary.
Hourly rate calculated @ $22.
Offered contract @ old job.
Old job wants 13 hours a week. 
Hourly rate $22, same as salary hourly rate.
 
Tax person said, "Save 50% of net pay for taxes."
That would make it $11/hour.
I don't want that.
11 x 13 = 143 net pay
I want 50
25 x 13 =  325 net pay
I will work 9-1130 PM Sun through Thur.
I want the extra $ for extra things I want to buy and provide for my family.
I get up every day @ 6 AM.
That means 6-ish hours sleep.
53 hours/week
I'm young enough, can handle that.
 
What do I do?
1) Take 22 and make 143/week
2) Walk away
3) Counter with 44 so my actual take home is 286
 
Do you think countering lower than 44 is worth it in this situation?
 
Questioning ...
