re: What's the longest you've waited to start a job after accepting the position?

Dude, relax.

Businesses have their own needs, due diligence, etc.

They're not going to rush you through just to suit your financial needs.

And if you bug the shite out of them now, they may get the idea that you will not be able to comprehend such.

Stay in touch, and relax. If you're bored, continue your job search... you may find something better.

Terrible advice, relaxing is what gets people overlooked. You're gonna wanna call these people two times a day minimum, make sure they know you're prepared and eager to start working. Find out your future boss's home address and send him an early Christmas card with questions about when you can start, or just pay him a visit at his house after hours and ask in person. You don't want to look like you don't care about it, show them you're a go-getter.
