What does this picture have to do with EDMUG in October? >>

Contractor vs. employee: the *real* benefit
1:07:42 PM  Justice:  Bad stuff about company X?
1:07:45 PM  Princess Pink Shirt: yes
1:07:51 PM  Princess Pink Shirt:   sweatshop.
1:07:53 PM  Justice:  Yeah, someone mentioned they were a bit of a grinder
1:08:16 PM  Princess Pink Shirt:  stingy with the compensation, herculean effort expected.
1:08:39 PM  Justice:  Ouch!
1:08:44 PM  Justice:  Homey don't play dat!!
1:08:46 PM  Justice:  That's what I say to that
1:09:05 PM  Princess Pink Shirt: Well, that is for their staff. Contractors always get treated better, right? :)
1:09:16 PM  Justice:  Of course
1:09:30 PM  Justice:  Because contractors can say stuff like "homey don't play dat" and keep their street cred
1:09:35 PM  Justice:  That's what I do here all the time!
1:09:40 PM  Justice:  And I've still got street cred!!
1:09:41 PM  Justice:  Right?
1:10:00 PM  Justice:  You still there?
1:10:30 PM  (Princess Pink Shirt has disconnected)

At my company, I'm an employee and could say "Homey don't play 'dat" if I felt it were prudent.
