        @avantgame if you ask them for what you want, maybe they'll negotiate? e.g. on the credit thing

        @leighblue yeah I've been trying. so far I've got them to agree that I could say literally one vague sentence, ever.

        @avantgame I wonder why they'd want to give up the benefit of an association with your name. Strange.

        @leighblue because they think their name is the benefit, not mine! :)

        @avantgame Guess they must be a *really* fun company, otherwise it sounds horrible. The thing is that they could pay you reasonably, right?

        @LynJ supposedly this "Group" in the company does not have budget. I know. It's terrible.

        @avantgame Jane. You get to write your own ticket. You’ve earned that. Is this the ticket you want to write? Sure doesn’t sound like it.

        @GreeterDan That's a nice thing to say. I'm slighly bored and looking for fun things to do, so I guess that's why I'm considering...

        @avantgame Stop considering this. In fact, you should stop considering this AND out the company. This is despicable behavior.

        @avantgame don't do it! You set the value for your own ideas. Set it low and your ideas will be treated that way.
