I roll off my project Dec 1. I got offered a role on a dumpster fire project I absolutely don’t want to join. My CC says it’s likely the only role open till after holidays. Can I decline and wait?

Not true. I got screwed on my dumpster fire project.

What location are you and are you federal?

Ditto

Take PTO until after the holidays.

Take it and run in Feb

If you can take the utilization hit, don’t take it. But the bench is deep right now so careful
