Every time the personell guy would ask about it I'd say "Oh yeah, I'll get to that", then never did. Eventually he forgot about it. 4 years later when I left the company the same personell guy tried to pre-emptively threaten me about confidentiality and such. I wasn't going to violate the company's confidentiality, but I didn't appreciate being threatened without having done anything, so I told him there was no such agreement in place. He said of course there is and that I signed it when I started work, and stormed over to the file cabinet. After a few minutes of frantic digging around in lots of files he came back all stuttering with a very different tone. ****************************************************************** Embed Inc, Littleton Massachusetts, (978) 742-9014. #1 PIC consultant in 2004 program year. http://www.embedinc.com/products -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
