Jan 2004, or Jan 2005? If it's Jan 2005, I'd agree -- I've flagged short non-contract work as a reason for not hiring someone.

Jan 2005.

you might have more leverage than you think.

Interesting... :-)

You've also made the assumption that the two aren't mutually compatable.

Yes, I did, but I also thought that even if they were, that was going to take practically all of my time, and I still need some of it left for some other stuff I'm involved in.

even bought my own laptop, just so I could use my prefered editor

You... bought a laptop just for an editor? :-)

As much as you like one tool, I don't think it's a reason to leave or stay with a job, as it's being short sighted

As much as I agree, I still think that this (my current job) is an excelent opportunity for me to excel in this particular tool (Perl).

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.


No such thing as a small change
