David,
As a full time tech and for your sake, I would keep it like you
have it. I recall a class by George Emerson of Ball State who did a
salary study about a decade ago which showed that contract techs make
much more per hour than us employees.
Your administrators will create a full-time position, give it a
range of say 30-40k with a depressing classification. You will either
take it or lose your existing contract. That U work is a great source
of private work, but full-time won't leave enough time/energy to do
much Others will make the $40/hour while you get $17-and all the fun
of university enslavement. If the U gets control over you, all kinds of
unhappy things will happen. Stay contracted!! "Privatization" is in
vogue anyway.
