I discussed salary with the Internship employer yesterday. I wanted to make sure I will be able to quit my current job, and still make enough to live, for a couple months until the business takes off.
He has offered to match my current salary! This would only be a guaranteed base pay. (In the case of not getting enough projects for a month, etc) And all the projects would be "extra" money for me.
Whoot whoot! That takes such a huge weight off my shoulders, knowing I will be able to depend on at least making what I am now. With lots of opportunity for growth.
I was planning on picking up a part time job, for a steady source of income, but I think I will hold off on that for now. I don't want to over burden myself.
I still can't put my quit notice in yet. He is giving me a project hopefully next week, and we are going to see how that goes before we make the entire leap.
But things are looking good! I'm anxious to get started.
Good News On Internship!
