Rates. Jun 6, 2012

The demand of highly qualified work at silly rates will most certainly exclude me.

Price Jun 6, 2012

Far more than anything else. I have perhaps unreasonable expectations about eating twice a day.

Used to be the CAT tool, rates and deadline Jun 6, 2012

Now, it is just the rates and deadline.

Unlike DLyons, I do not mind eating only once a day, but this mortal coil requires sleep at regular intervals, showering, the need to interact with other real-world human beings, and the freedom to deal with the occasional domestic crisis (partner breaking leg fits into this category).
