But how long can you manage on £9000.00 ?Originally posted by sasguruYou missed the cushy permie 6 fig salary with all benefits option.The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.
But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”Comment

I've been techie contracting on 400-500 a day for years and the best salary I've ever seen for an end user permie role in my game is 50K, and I reckon 40K tops at the moment. If somebody offered me 70K for a cushy end user job on 37.5 hours a week I'd snatch their hand off, then probably get fed up within a year and pack it in !Originally posted by FranckoWhat would you go for...?Comment

Using the type of set-up common in some eurolander countries, 400 per day would work out at more than 70k net per year (210 days.)Originally posted by BagpussYou are having a laugh?
It even keeps you on the avoidance side of the line - pretty much.Comment
