    Any time you make demands or ultimatums do so with your hand on the door and one foot out it and the other in the air..If they turn you down, be prepared to simply get up and walk out that minute and never return..the last time I did something like this I had already excepted another job and was giving them the chance to keep me. If they declined I had my letter of resignation in hand.. Best of luck.

    I would say with the economy the way it is now is not the time to make demands. Be thankful you have a job. Take this from someone who has been out of work for 9 months.

    Congrats!

    You just might have inspired me to put my foot down too, since my work has been screwing me pretty hard for pretty long, too!


    Reach for the stars, and if you don't grab them at least you'll fall on top of the world.

    Just be wary... if they hire a new guy and want you to help train him, start sending out resumes.

    Only half kidding. Congrats regardless.
