That's for sure.  I just started to work for a company that I
did some consulting for about 15 years ago.  It was easier
paperwork to put me in the system as a part-time employee
back then.  So when I started again a few weeks ago, my
employee ID number was still in the system to the surprise
of the HR girl who handled the initial paperwork.
