I originally preferred to start as late as possible because of some family situations I still needed to take care of. I was persuaded by a friend that that was the stupidest idea since that's sacrificing a month of salary. So, I emailed the recruiter saying I can actually start earlier. Later, I realized that I still need to be out of town due to the same family situation, I contacted the recruiters but they said that the later slots (for start date/training/new hire orientation) are already taken. They said if a slot empties up or if someone want to switch then they will contact me. However, they have not contacted me and I think I will be starting at the earlier starting date. Can I still contact them to ask whether I can delay my starting date? If yes, how should I phrase the question? Thank you!
