When we are underpaid, we end up resenting it, and it's good for all us freelancers to demand a fair wage.

I think that it might be worth if it I could pull off negotiating a higher salary. Thankfully, the boss lady hasn't called me yet, so I haven't had to make any decisions. :) Oh god, Margie, I wish they would let me do it off-site. But the way they operate makes it impossible for this to happen. I remember a past on-site gig, though, that <i>totally</i> would have been possible to accomplish off-site. It made me so frustrated!

Negotiate either half time or a higher rate. It's sounds like half-time would work better for your plans. But if you were paid more it might make it worth it to you? Suggestion.
