Welcome to the world of contract engineering. “We have nine weeks of work to do, but the purchase order was delayed for six weeks because the VP who approves them was out of town, but we can’t move back the completion date because we have other projects that are dependent on your project, so if you don’t mind working sixteen hour days for three weeks that would be great.
