Phoned the agent this morning about the hourly/daily rate thing. He wanted to know if I had a Bee in my bonnet, which got him all worked up.

I've been approached by an agent, won't name names, but he's got a Manchester accent.

He's offered me a role at an accounting firm as their SEO specialist. He told me the rate was £75-100, I think that's hourly but I've asked him to confirm.

I'd like it, but at 20%, I suspect NoLUcK.

Any thoughts?
