If they want you bad enough, then they need to offer you an interest in the company as an alternative to a regular paycheck.
Quite true. You do not want to be a pawn. Not sure your relationship with thee folks, but they could be using you for their ends. A good idea that I'll have to think about. Off the bat I see two downsides, a) I can't live with $0 salary b) shares in the company would be worth $0 if it goes under. However, if/when we get a new influx of cash, I might be able to leverage something here. Also to consider the fact that I'm now carrying the weight of the other guy who's now gone... get your ass to mars

Good news: Consulting company we founded is taking off nicely; we have some customers. Investor promised more money last week. Bad news: It's been quiet. A little too quiet. Plus I have yet to be paid. They now owe me 2 months pay +benefits +my expenses which amounts to a lot. get your ass to mars

When any decision pertains to my livelihood, I often base my answer based on the question "What if this were the Italian mafia?" FACTS: - They have promised you the money.. at a later day - They're two months behind on the payment. What would the mafia do? silverwasp wrote:Be careful what you wish for...

....Or, instead of murdering people, you could just start selling the office equipment on craigslist to get your due.
