OH and check your PM.
Thank you all for the support.

My flight back to the US is Apr 28.

The contract is actually a pretty good deal. Slightly better than last time but with a bit more freedom to get involved more with manufacturing.

And yes, it is temporary and that's great. There are a few things that I don't care for there but overall it's a great place to work.

They have assigned me the same dark cold office with no windows to return to as well. That might be a negative to most people but it keeps my chronic four letter bitching contained within "the cave". That allows me to effectively vent before I have to go talk nicey-nice corp speak to someone who is most likely on campus but in another department.

Most of the folks there are truly even tempered and easy to get along with. That's not sarcasm. Up and down the chain of command the staff are great. Staying cool and relaxed while also pushing to get tasks completed is much more difficult for me.

Management knows how productive I can be in the right environment.
