    Milan, you really should take control of your own destiny.

    Carpe diem!

    don't really want to turn down the extenshunnn point blank so thinking
    of giving some conditions for the extenshunn,

    like 1 week per month from home etc

    which if they agree to will make the assignment less miserable

    and if they don't then I'll just be on my merry way to the next .Net
    customer

    what does the jury think of that for a strategy ?

    Ask them for a keyboard with a shift and/or caps lock key.

    You know you want to.

    Sounds to me like you're trying to force their hand hoping that it will be their "fault" that you don't extend.
