I'm fixin' to go into negotiations for full time work after swearing I'd never go back to full time ever again.

I've spotted only 1 comment there, but hopefully he's not a loud minority, thus giving me hope. To see that others in management buy into the burst work theory is great. The comments above give me good talking points (I hope). Helpful. I’m fixin’ to go into negotiations for full time work after swearing I’d never go back to full time ever again.
