Michael, I've done the same in the past, but my present job is much
different. I now in the IT department of a non-profit organization. Our
work week is 40 hours, and I can work from home at least 1 or 2 days a
week. Real deadlines are practically non-existent, and what they consider
a "panic" situation would have just been a minor inconvenience in my past
jobsl. This I can deal with. <g>
