Guest guest Posted January 11, 2002 Report Share Posted January 11, 2002 I have learned this lesson. Too late, I guess, but I do sort of feel bad. Kinda like I'm being underhanded by agreeing to work late, but jotting it in a file in case I have to use it against them later. I guess the bottom line is " take care of you " , because you'd better believe that these companies will take care of themselves.
