I just got off the phone with the

bohemianpsyche because I needed advice on how one should go about negotating a work contract these days. Thats because someone I know in Redmond referred someone to me who was looking for a programmer. The work sounds easy enough, and shouldn't take too long -- maybe a week or two.

Anyway, I was just writing down some notes about what the lady had said, when the phone rang again. It was someone else that I had interviewed with a while ago. They are looking to hire me on a short term contract (3-6 months) with the possibility of permanent employment if I become indispensible. They have asked me to send them blurb by email on what kind of rates I charge for contract work. *GULP*

I think I'm going to have to spend some time figuring out what kind of rates I charge, real quick, as I promised to send him something by tomorrow. Now, I just need to figure that out for myself...
