I actually did the math on my current salary. So with converting it to USD and accounting for 2 weeks vacation and assuming I only work 40 hours a week. 5 pounds per hour is (approximately) one-tenth my hourly rate. So I would only be putting in 6 minutes of work for the entire length of the contract. Which, with my setup, amounts to sitting down, booting up, sipping coffee, and reading all of my slack notifications
Mind you I'm not a senior engineer and I'm also not paid in the top percentile
Your hourly rate is my daily rate 😭 gg man
I calculated with my salary, and it takes me longer to get to my desk.
It actually says 5 pounds PER YEAR on the application.
