RE: Denver Contracting

Most employees don't have detailed "contracts" with their employers, but
they signed a document in which they acknowleged that violation of the
rules of conduct in some employee handbook or another will be grounds
for disciplinary action or dismissal.  If your employee handbook says
"no
outside work," or requires you to clear same with your managment, the
fact that that isn't the common practice doesn't change your situation.
Offhand, I'd say this is especially true at Oracle, where employees are
sometimes looked upon more as King Larry's consumable chattel.

Greg responds:
I think I am tired of being viewed as someone's "consumable chattel." 

I had a couple of interviews last year with Larry and his minions. I
think subconsciously, I sabotaged the third and final rounds on two
separate occasions and only went on them out of some misguided
childhood, Puritan work ethic issues I inherited from my parents. :)
