I was dumb enough to assume that a man-day was 8 hours and accepted a gig on a daily rate in Germany. Once on site I was told that they consider a working day 9 hours and expect me to work that. Huh?
P!sses me off a bit because I would have gone for an hourly rate had I known. Anyone else have experience in Germany? I am being told that 9h is a normal working day here - I say b*llocks.
On the plus side, it's a sunny blue 30 degrees in Beergardenland - half the reason I took the gig
