About 4 years ago, that role in PK was £1kpd*, so guesses as to what it is now?

I was doing S/390 DB2 UDB support for a company as part of their outsourcing arm but hadn't actually done anything in 3 months except for moan about lack of work. Eventually they asked me if it was possible to get TCP/IP working in UDB for a VSE customer as they had an urgent requirement. I promptly replied 'but yes, of course' and began swotting up as I know nothing of VSE. After a couple of days the work package came through. This was for the Pakistan airforce which was based on the borders of Afghanistan just before it all kicked off with the Taliban. My notice was handed in a few days later“Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.”Comment
