I found when I was trying this it was a third of my time looking, a third selling, a third actual paid work so you'd need to increase ur rate by three until you can get employees onboard.

Finding extra part time remote work
There's more to DevOps than just going to conferences. Do you know what it is and have you planned your experience, training and learning around it?Originally posted by shookshiver View PostI assume your talking from experience

Im going to a Devops meeting here in London so ill get my business cards ready and start handing it out. I need the extra cash cause ill be buying a property soon
I'm not sure that you're going to find much part-time remote work there (I wouldn't be interested in such contractors).
You need to list out the benefits to potential clients of working the way you want (and be prepared to sell it), because they'll be as skeptical as I am."I can put any old tat in my sig, put quotes around it and attribute to someone of whom I've heard, to make it sound true."

Nah i'm fine, for the type of work I was talking about the clients are too cheap to be able to afford me and usually go for the lowest price. You can probably make more money driving an Uber in your spare time.Originally posted by Stevie Wonder BoyNeed to upskill Sal ...
The ones that know what they want and can afford it are usually too demanding to be able to squeeze them alongside full time gig.
In any case I'm not looking for more work, as I work to live, not live to work.Comment
