Thanks for that, interesting graphs. Doesn't include everything though.

My own corner of Germany is lowest on pay, highest on attractive women.

Which part of the graph is that?

I understood all of it except the word "Know-How". Those crazy Germans; why can't they just speak English?

Darm, thanks that's useful info. I might one day have to take a contract in Germany and so that'll give me something to pitch in at. TBH it's less than what I get now but the market here in the UK is being decimated so the next logical step for me is to look to Europe.

Frankfurt area pays the best rates, highest earners are between 45-49 and project leaders get the highest hourly rate.

I thought it was some kind of 'invade Germany' video game. I'm clicking on the blokes and trying to relocate them to various regions but it didn't work :-(
