Avoided getting 2nd job...

Yep - had to sign a paper stating I would not get a second job without permission, in addition to full-time editing job for this one company, which I cannot name due to having signed waiver to not slander on the MT boards (!). Followed all the rules, waited faithfully without a raise for 4 years for one promised when new clients came aboard. Then, axed via email (no phone call!) just after the New Year due to work shortage (although they are signing on new clients as we speak). Gotta love it!
