I turned him down.
He counter-offered a 6 month trial, at the end of which we would renegotiate if it was working out. That's nice, but I'd need to be able to bounce after 6 weeks if it wasn't working out.
The current web guy is leaving because of a medical condition that has severely limited his attention span. This guy has been unresponsive to the current set of clients for so long that the owner is desperate to fill the role, hence his tenacity in pursuing me.
40 past clients who will come back for more work at some point. 4 of them are ready for new work right now.
There is a part of me now that could imagine trying it out, being willing to give notice at any point and not worry about a 6 month timeline.
