I have heard so many stories of the CEO yelling and cussing people out. My time just about came on Wednesday, but I averted it by remaining cool. Still, I saw the ugly wolf snarling under the lambskin, and it used foul language.

Programming is my main skill, and I've been at it since age 9. The only other thing I could do would be to invent a new computer, but that's for the future... All I need right now is a break and I'll be fine...

Yes you are right about thankfulness. Ironically, this company contacted me just a week after I had been laid off from another position. I had worked with them before, and heard from them out of the blue. I was one of the few remaining unburned bridges (see above comments about the CEO's temper). The Lord does only good.

Thanks for your forthright and kind words.

You handled it well. My best advice to you is to stay OUT of office politics, lest you be swept in by the undercurrents and drowned. Stay above the fray...

If you have been with the company for a year then it is probably a good time to discuss a small increase in your rate with them.
