You don't know how problematical the question is!

I work for a consulting firm, for the last 5 3/4 years (to the day) I've worked as a "Web Wrangler" (Web master/ designer/programer etc.) for the USGS. Several weeks ago I was told that my company wanted me to work on a different contract. I was sad to leave the USGS, fine bunch of people, with real "fire in the belly" for their work. They gave me a lovely going away luncheon on Friday. When I got back to the office after the luncheon, there was a message to call the home office. Seems that some sort of monkey wrench (missing signatures, waivers) had developed in the contract I was moving to, and would I mind taking Monday off. I didn't have a choice, since the USGS folks had already reallocted the funds that would have been my salary. So I'm waiting at home for word as to whether I have a job or not...
