    Hang on after hours support. I've never gone near out of hours support unless its£80 an hour (its the only way I've ever found of stopping clients calling in "emergencies" at 3am when the backup fails due to no tape in tape drive).

    £85 per day for saying "Have you tried turning it on and off again" isn't bad going, and as about close to management as a McDonalds 'manager'

    Okay, say 220 days per year - and lets assume umbrella as well - that's what 15-16K per year - less if you want to factor in sickness / insecurity etc.

    For a team leader....
