I will just have to deal with whatever comes when it comes time to describe my salary history in the future. The 85% suggestion has given me something to ponder though I'm not sure it works in the case of my office. You guys have given me some reasonable responses here, which is nice because so far the only person I have discussed this with is my husband. Thank you!
Just quote a total comp # in the future.
100k base
10 - 30kbonus
10k 401k match
2.5k FSA match
2k tuition reimbursement
2k stock bonus
Whatever else

I like the Fri. afternoon off idea or something similar, but only you can judge your satisfaction w the job and weigh the alternatives such as alienating them now, in a bad job market.

I would've negotiated more time off, so the hourly rate stays the same (i.e. more leave, either Fridays off or just accruing more vacation time per pay period).
I think it is a big mistake to accept a cut by going full time, especially if you are salaried now, because full time usually means more than 40 hours.
