      Wasn't that hard to negotiate. After you had been introduced to the team, they held a secret ballot. The concensus was they only wanted you in on one day, if at all. It was HR that haggled them up to 4!! And they only did that to placate Finance.

                    Sounds like a great business plan for you though, switching back and forth to make what you've just done obsolete.
