Hello David and Caut List, Congrats' on your courageous decision, I think in the long run you will be much better off. We will be praying for you to get lots of private work these next few years. Just curious--Did you try asking them about "job sharing"? This could be the perfect compromise with many huge advantages to both the school and the tech(s). (That is if the school can manage not to cheat by stealing the money spent for your benefits). I have talked to administrators about this, all of which are resistant to it and yet can give no logical reason why. I, like you, need time for family, life, outside higher paying work, and hearing rest from obnoxious acoustics. Is anybody out there doing "Job Sharing"?? -Mike Jorgensen RPT Central Michigan University School of Music I won't be answering any posts 'til Monday, as i've already put in my 40, and the concert pianos will be untouched by me through the string of concerts this weekend.
