[QUOTE="Undertow, post: 3768402, member: 4550"] That is the best "reasoned and seasoned" advice in this situation. I wish I had had some voices of experience way back in those pre-seniority days as well as the first 6 months as it would have saved me considerable energy and aggravation. ian1006, You might have realized it already by now but if you haven't, I'll offer my two cents - They will try to get as much as they can from you as long as they can and if they sense the slightest hint that you might waver rather than stand your ground when confronted, they will repeatedly exert intimidation whether even if it's a bluff. As much as I hated to sit down and read and understand all the nuances in the contract, I was better off long term for knowing the language once disputes real or imagined occurred. No matter how many decent bosses you will work for, it's inevitable you're gonna get a bad one and that's when you will need to know exactly what the limits of how much you can take and how much you are required to take indeed are. Knowing you can withstand the bad times will make the good times that much better. [/QUOTE]
