I do like this idea - have you done this before?  I am no contract lawyer, but it&#x27;d be good to know what specific terms you should outline for the probation period so that the company feels safe and you aren&#x27;t being taken advantage of.<p>Side-thought: Is there a limit to how long someone can be a temporary employee?  You hear crazy stories like people only being made permanent after a couple years of layoff-rehire.
