I responded to the offer for a research associate position by saying that I was not comfortable working past the time when my children normally get home from school, at least, not every day. I outlined the hours I am comfortable working, i.e. 8:30 to 3:00 (considering I will have an hour commute, that would get me home just in time). I calculated that it would add up to 6.5 hours per day. If you multiply by 5 days per week, you get 6.5 x 5 = 32.5. The normal week is 40, so 32.5/40 = just over 75% (which is 30 hrs per week).
He came back with ........OK. You can work 75% and have 75% salary! Oh ....MY!....
Take? Leave? Laugh? Quake with Fear?
It seems to be now or never.
I said, OK. Send me a contract. p.s. Do I get vacation time?
