thanks,, yeah, ill be working out of the house again with travel involved. I gotta steal my office back from the wife since its become her studio. Perhaps im gonna have to relocate the office now that i think about it,, dont wanna piss off a gemeni (sp) , they tend to be a little sneaky:D
actually, I have had a job with African Petroleum Plc located in Nigeria. All expenses paid for the family and I to be a Maint Supv for 11 months. Lots of cash (145k), food, 5 star shelter with utilities, driver, two guards, satcom internet all paid just to show up and start on the 18th of june. I gotta figure out how to put that off now since if have already started the ball rolling with the african channels in DC. This could be tricky,, since they indicated they are sending me one months advance pay to transport ect and the expense report process to get that money back.,,,, something sounds fishy though,,,lol,,can anyone say SCAM!!!!

Be careful here. If they send you a check and then want you to send part of it back that is the classic Nigerian scam. Everything seems ok at first, but by the time the bank figures out the check is no good you have already sent your check and now you are out the money.
The govt. forces the banks to credit your account with the deposit right away. They used to wait until they knew the check was good but people bitched so much the govt. made them change. This opened up the opportunity for this kind of scam.
