She said she was going to be working as an IC. Nine cents a line is a HORRIBLE rate for an IC. If she's going to be working as a SC, then it's a great rate if the dictators speak clearly and reasonably. The last post I read, she wasn't sure WHAT position she was going to be working, so it doesn't make sense to go on any further, does it, to someone who doesn't know what position she's going to be working and someone who knows nothing about the account she's going to be working. Ghseesh!
